GILEAD CHRISTIAN SCHOOL ENROLLMENT PROCEDURE: K-12

Admission to GCS

As a parent, you know that all children are not alike. Each child has his or her own special talents, interests, academic and emotional needs. A school that is right for one may not be the best choice for another.

When you are selecting a school, prayerfully consider these:

Is the curriculum appropriate for my child’s talents and goals?

Will the school challenge without overwhelming?

Will my child be comfortable in the school’s environment? Will I?

Will my child learn the values and Christian ethics that are important to our family?
