Overview

Mission

In the fall of 2023, with a new 5-acre campus, we prayerfully decided to change our name to Georgetown Christian Academy (GCA) so that we could better serve the needs of our growing community. We desire to continue to build upon the strong foundation set, keeping our core focus on Christ and biblical values as our framework. Mission Statement Our mission at Georgetown Christian Academy is to provide students with a firm foundation of faith, a heart centered on Christ, and a commitment to academic excellence.

What it reported doing in 2025

Financial support for educational programs provided by parents of students and numerous - approximately 30 - friends of the school to construct classrooms and meeting spaces and to enhance learning opportunities for all students.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
