Grace Fellowship Academy

A Different Kind of School

Grace Fellowship Academy is a small, private, non-denominational Christian school serving homeschooling families in Eastern North Carolina.

Our students spend Tuesdays and Thursdays learning together at GFA, receiving hands-on instruction from caring, experienced teachers in small classes.

On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, school comes home.

You choose where you learn, when you begin, what additional resources you use, and how your family makes the learning experience your own.

Your child’s teacher provides the academic framework, teaches the core lessons, evaluates assignments, and guides you through the work to be completed at home.

You remain in charge of your child’s education. We come alongside you.

Why Families Choose GFA

📚 Professional Teaching

Your child receives thoughtful, structured instruction from experienced teachers who love children and love learning.

🏡 The Freedom of Homeschooling

Three days a week are yours. Learn at home, explore your child’s interests, take a field trip, travel, or simply enjoy learning together as a family.

👧 Small Classes

We intentionally keep our classes small—no more than 10 students—so every child can be known, encouraged, and given individual attention.

❤️ Christian Community

Your child grows academically, socially, morally, and spiritually within a caring Christian community.

👩‍👧 A True Parent-Teacher Partnership

You don’t hand your child’s education over to someone else. You gain a team of people who are working alongside you.

🌱 Room to Grow

Children need both roots and room to explore. GFA provides a structured classroom experience while preserving the flexibility and individuality that make homeschooling so special.

Imagine Your Child’s Week

MONDAY

School at Home

Snuggle up with a good book. Practice math. Work on handwriting. Take a nature walk.
Learn at your kitchen table—or somewhere completely different.

TUESDAY

GFA Classroom Day

Your child walks into a small classroom filled with familiar faces.
Reading. Math. Science. Art. Bible. Hands-on activities. Laughter. Friendship.
And a teacher who knows your child, loves them and prays for them.

WEDNESDAY

School at Home

Continue the week’s lessons at your family’s pace.

THURSDAY

GFA Classroom Day

Another day of learning, growing, asking questions, working together, and building friendships.

FRIDAY

School at Home

Finish the week’s work—or take what you’ve learned into the real world.

That’s the beauty of hybrid education.

More Than a Classroom

At GFA, learning doesn’t stop when the classroom door closes.

Our students have opportunities to learn, play, serve, explore, and grow together as a community.

From science experiments and creative projects to outdoor learning, special events, service opportunities, and time together with GFA families, we’re building something bigger than a school.

We’re building a community where children are known and families belong.

A School Where Your Child Is Known

We believe children thrive when they are known personally.

That’s why we intentionally keep our classes small.

Our teachers have the opportunity to know each child’s strengths, challenges, personality, interests, and learning style—and to communicate with parents throughout the year.

No child should feel like a number.

At GFA, your child is part of a small community where teachers notice, friends become familiar, and families become connected.

And You Don’t Have to Figure It All Out Yourself.

One of the hardest parts of homeschooling can be knowing what to teach, when to teach it, and whether you’re doing enough.

GFA helps take that weight off your shoulders.

Our teachers develop lesson plans, teach core subject material, evaluate assignments, assign grades, and provide quarterly report cards.

You receive the structure and guidance you need while retaining the freedom to make your family’s education your own.

You don’t have to homeschool alone.

Christian Education. Family Involvement. Academic Excellence.

We believe the best education develops the whole child—spiritually, morally, intellectually, socially, and academically.

Our academic program is grounded in a Biblical worldview, while our hybrid model recognizes something equally important:

Parents have a God-given responsibility and opportunity to educate and disciple their children.

That’s why we don’t want to replace the homeschool parent.

We want to partner with you.

What Could Your Family Do With Three Days at Home?

Imagine having the structure and support of a classroom without giving up the flexibility of homeschooling.

Imagine your child having classmates and teachers while still having plenty of time with you.

Imagine having a teacher to call when you’re struggling with a lesson.

Imagine knowing your child is making friends in a small, caring Christian community.

Imagine not having to choose between homeschooling and school.

You don’t have to choose.
