Basket Ball Season

Basket-ball practice has started for the boys varsity, jv and girls varsity. The cheerleaders are hard at work as well. Both sports, coaches and team members are preparing for the first game on December 2nd at Carolina Courts. This is the homecoming game and one of the most important. All grace attendees as well as families and friends are more than welcome to attend the game to support our Grace Academy Lions!

Senior Year!

For all you seniors out there fall is quickly passing us by!  Hopefully you have applied to a few colleges or at least communicated with Grace Academy by turning in transcript requests, attending their college info seminars, and sending in information for graduation requirements such as cord fulfillments and general info about you.  If you haven't, it isn't too late yet!  Most colleges are still accepting general applications and once you apply you have a chance to apply for their scholarship programs.  Also, don't forget to fill out a FAFSA form so you can qualify for need based scholarships.  Visit the Grace Academy Office if you need some advice about getting into college, they sure helped me out!

Common Ground!


Common Ground is a great way have fun, worship, and fellowship with fellow Grace students! Every thursday night, 7-12 graders gather at the Grace center to play games, sing, and have devotion time with our awesome speaker, Chris Klotz. Common Ground is also a great way to get to know other students. It is held every thursday night at the Grace center, starting at 7 and ending around 8 or 8:15. If you can make it, than start coming to Common Ground. We always have a great time!


-there is no Common Ground this coming thursday, Nov. 10, but it will resume the following week!

Senior Baby-Picture and Bible Verse

If you are a senior and have not already, it is time to turn in a baby picture and your favorite bible verse to Mrs. Burroughs!  They were actually due last Thursday but better late than never!  You can turn in a hard copy, a photo on a CD, or email it to burroughs@graceacademync.com.  The bible verse will appear under your senior picture in the yearbook and the baby pictures will be lined up anonymously so that students can try to guess which senior matches each baby picture.  So pick out a cute one (if you can , they are pretty much all cute!) and your favorite verse and get them in before it's WAY too late!
