Athletic Programs.  Grace Christian Academy is a member of the West County Athletic League.  We desire to run an excellent sports program and expect nothing but the best for our athletes, coaches, parents and fans.  Athletes must maintain a 2.0 GPA with no F's.  They are expected to conduct themselves as godly young men and women, exercising self-control and displaying good sportsmanship at all times.  This behavior is expected to be modeled by their coaches and parents.  The following sports are offered for an additional fee:
