MISSION STATEMENT | The mission of Gaston Christian School is to help students mature spiritually and excel academically by offering a Biblically integrated, college-preparatory program that will enable them to impact the kingdom of God by living productive Christian lives.
“The best part about being at Gaston Christian is there are a
lot of good teachers and friends! I like this school because it
teaches us the word of God!”
Emily, Elementary student at GCS
“Gaston Christian really shaped the
person that I am today. Not only
did it give me a strong educational
foundation, but also a strong moral and
Christian foundation during the crucial
years as a child and young adult.”
Allison, GCS alumni, Class of 2006
I couldn’t have asked for a better place
to send my daughter everyday! Gaston
Christian School has far exceeded
all my expectations in a preschool
environment, and I feel great knowing
my child is receiving the social,
spiritual, and academic backbone
necessary for her future! It is a
privilege to be part of the Gaston Christian community, and I
thank all the teachers and staff for doing such an exceptional
job of creating the environment that every parent expects
and wants for their children.
