Grace Academy Of Dallas

What Grace Academy Of Dallas does

Grace Academy of Dallas is a private Christian school founded in 1974 and located in the Preston Hollow neighborhood of Dallas, Texas. It serves students from Pre-K3 through 6th grade with a biblically-integrated curriculum that combines phonics-based early literacy, STEM integration, enrichment courses (art, music, physical education, Spanish, library), weekly chapel, and programs such as the Study Buddy mentorship, athletics, after-school clubs, and the Grace Camp summer program. Preschool is offered in both full-day and half-day formats with two-, three-, and five-day options.

The school operates from a single campus at 11306A Inwood Rd. and is preparing to relocate to a larger campus at 10066 Marsh Lane in 2027, at which point it will add 7th grade in fall 2028 and 8th grade in fall 2029 to complete a Pre-K3–8 offering. Its technology stack is limited to standard K-12 administrative SaaS: RenWeb (FACTS) for student information systems, admissions processing, and the family portal, plus FACTS for tuition management. There is no proprietary technology, app, API, or AI/ML capability disclosed.

The business model is tuition-driven (annual, subscription-style billing per student) supplemented by the Annual Grace Fund (a 100% participation fundraising appeal to families, faculty, and friends) and event-based giving via the Starlight Stampede gala and online auctions. Admissions is run by Director of Admission Shelly Burns via online application, private campus tours, and scheduled open houses, with eligibility restricted to families affirming the school's doctrinal statement. The school is governed by a Board of Trustees, holds ACSI accreditation for its preschool, and has no parent company, institutional investor, or disclosed ownership changes.
