Welcome to Gardendale Christian Academy!

We’re delighted to have you explore our school community through our website. At GCA, we are committed to providing an exceptional education in a safe, caring, and spiritually enriching environment. Our dedicated Christian staff and faculty strive to nurture each student’s academic growth and spiritual development, praying for them and guiding them in the principles of faith and love found in the Bible.

Our school mascot, the knight, symbolizes the strength and dedication of a growing Christian faith. Like the knight, our students are encouraged to dedicate themselves to truth, kindness, and service, guided by courage and unwavering commitment to their faith and values.

At GCA, we instill core Christian principles to prepare our students for a fulfilling life of purpose:

  • Excellence & Integrity – Encouraging honesty, hard work, and academic dedication.

  • Friendship & Compassion – Fostering a spirit of kindness and service to others.

  • Faith in Action – Preparing our students to live out their Christian faith in the world.

  • Devotion to Christ – Inspiring each child to grow closer to the King of Kings, Jesus Christ.

We look forward to partnering with you in your child’s journey of faith, learning, and personal growth.
