Welcome to GCCA!

 

Gulf Coast Classical Academy was built with God as our foundation, without Him, none of this would have been possible. 

​

Gulf Coast Classical Academy set out as a Full-Time K-8 Classical Latin Christian School in the spring of 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The school was incorporated under the name Gulf Coast Classical Academy, Inc as a non-profit, Florida registered private school in January 2022 and is governed by a talented school board. 

 

God is continuously working through a community of people who have helped GCCA become the pillar of education in our area.​  Many thanks go out to the families, teachers, and to all the volunteers for their contributions that help with the development of this amazing school.  We are also blessed that Bethel Lutheran Church supports this mission.

 

​The Classical Latin Christian model naturally follows the values and principles that were once commonplace in our nation’s education.  As a Christian school, we recognize that God governs our school, and our parents, teachers, administration, and school board help foster an environment that adopts this philosophy.  A classical education complements this philosophy as it provides our students with a thorough understanding of true history, wisdom, and virtue through the works produced in the past by great minds, thinking, and logic.  The result is something remarkable; your child will simultaneously gain an immense amount of knowledge in a tech-free small class setting while learning how to behave civilly and morally, and how to solve complex problems in a changing world.  

​

GCCA’s parents, teachers, administration, and school board have come together to form a dedicated community of individuals who will provide a far superior education and environment for your child.  The caliber of GCCA’s faculty is impressive by any standard.  This school was formed to spread God's word and joy, and to be enjoyable and fulfilling for all those involved; this is His school and our teachers and administration are the vessels.  Children are a gift from God; it is incredible what they can achieve in the right environment.
