Grace Academy is a private Christian university-model school located in Stallings, North Carolina. The format of the school is different from traditional schools. At Grace Academy, students choose up to 5 classes a day, and take those classes on Mondays and Wednesdays. Students can also choose a different set of up to 5 classes which they will attend Tuesdays and Thursdays, so all together one student can take anywhere from 1 to 10 courses. There is no school on Fridays. School days at Grace Academy last 5 hours and 45 minutes, from 8:25 to 2:00. This is so students who are taking classes at home may have plenty of time to do so. Grace Academy students only attend the school 120 days in a year, which is a drastic change from a traditional private or public school.
Curriculum
[edit]The curriculum taught at Grace Academy is from a Biblical worldview, considering the Christian Bible infallible. In science courses, for example, Young Earth creationism is taught in lieu of the evolution-based model adhered to by public schools. Grace Academy is a university-model school.
