Equipping Families, Building Community


​Our Family Engagement Events are all about helping families grow stronger—offering simple tools, heartfelt conversations about faith, and opportunities to connect with other families who care. At GCA, you’re not just part of a school—you’re part of a family that loves and walks alongside yours.


​Two Ways to Grow This Year: 
​

​Round Tables

Parent Round Tables are a chance for GCA parents and guardians to gather for an time of encouragement, connection, and conversation. They are designed to help families navigate the year with renewed vision, practical tools, and spiritual encouragement.

​This is more than a meeting—it’s a chance to strengthen our partnership as families and school, rooted in faith and unity.

Armor Up Events

An Armor Up Event is a special parent gathering at GCA, designed to encourage, equip, and connect families. Each event focuses on diving deeper into a specific topic to discuss practical tools and biblical wisdom that parents can use to strengthen their homes spiritually and support their families growth. 

Some topics we plan on covering this year:
​grief, grieving and trauma; social media's impact on mental health

A Note From Mr. Sweeney 
--- GCA Coordinator for Family Engagement ---

As GCA’s Coordinator of Family Engagement, I have the joy of encouraging families to connect with one another, grow closer together, and deepen their walk with Christ. My heart is to help strengthen the bonds within our GCA community so that every family feels supported, encouraged, and rooted in faith.
