At Grace Covenant Academy, we are supported by the Advisory Council. This is a group of individuals whose role is to provide advisement to the Head of School regarding issues of policy, practice, or other unique challenges that face the school. The council is made up of individuals from the Grace Covenant Church Council, the GCA family and/or the community.  The Advisory Council can be reached at michael@gracecovenant.org.
