ACHIEVEMENTS
Read about how our
students did in the
2005/06 ACS International Fine
Arts Competition.
Students
who satisfactorily fulfill the curriculum requirements of the school have
historically experienced no difficulty transferring into any other school
system. The Christian School of Grace Baptist Church meets or exceeds all State
of Pennsylvania curriculum requirements for each grade level.
Students from The Christian School of GBC
participate in festivals and competitions with other Christian schools.
These competitions include Spelling Bees, art festivals, music festivals and
speech competitions.
MACSA and ACSI offer yearly festivals for
visual arts, music and speech. Numerous Grace students have earned superior rankings for projects
ranging from sculpture to photography to watercolor painting.
The school choir has also earned Superior
ratings many times with several top finishes. Soloists in voice, piano,
and instruments have represented the school well earning several Superior
ratings.
Public speaking has always been a vital
part of Christian education as we strive to train leaders for the next
generation. This emphasis has resulted in many of our students earning
speech awards in recitations, dramatic interpretations and in interpretative
reading.
The results from the Iowa Test of Basic
Skills Achievement Test given in the Spring show the school's excellent standing
when compared to other schools:
