Admissions
Greenwood Christian Academy offers spiritual training that is aimed at bringing students into a correct relationship with God through Jesus Christ, while maintaining a strong academic program.
As a Christian school, we are committed to the teaching of the Bible and are persuaded that there should be a direct relationship between what Christian students believe and how they behave.
Very specific requirements for admission have been established for each student desiring to enroll. The most important of these requirements are summarized below:
ADMISSION POLICY
- The Board of Directors requires at least one parent submit a clearly written
personal salvation testimony that provides evidence of a personal relationship
with Jesus Christ.
- Each prospective enrollee must have a minimum grade point average of 2.0 for the last year of academic studies.
-
One or both of the above criteria may be waived by recommendation of the
Administration.
- Each student must demonstrate that he/she has a behavioral history that would be in accordance with the standards and expectations of our school.
SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION
New applications will be processed in the numeric order received. Promptness is important in returning your application material due to the possibility of a waiting list in each class.

TESTING
Students may be tested to ensure their readiness for the academics at GCA. Generally this testing will be in the areas of math and language arts.
INTERVIEW
If a student’s application is favorable, an interview with the prospective student(s) and parents will be scheduled.
The purpose of the interview is to answer questions and familiarize the student(s) and parents with our school and to make a final determination relative to enrollment.
NOTIFICATION OF ACCEPTANCE/REJECTION
- Due to limited enrollment opportunities, numerous applicants and very definite enrollment criteria, we are not able to enroll all students desiring to do so. Therefore, parents/students should not presume that enrollment is automatic.
- Parents/guardians will receive written notification as soon as possible of any
student’s acceptance/rejection.
