Great school! Beautiful campus. Both of my kids are getting a top notch education with teachers that really are incredible and admin that are involved and kind. Be warned though, they take education very seriously. Your child will be doing a good deal of schoolwork. But for us, it's worth it. read more

Absolutely Amazing Art Program! My children are getting a wonderful education & I am so happy about that. We have been with the School for 3 years. We didn't know any of the Faculty or staff when we transferred into the school. Everyone has been super friendly and helpful. read more

We moved to this school from Gaston Day school and we are so impressed! If you want a school that cares about your child, their academics, sportsmanship and character, you have found the right school. read more

My daughter has been a student at Gaston Christian School since 7th grade and is now a senior. Her experience with the faculty at Gaston Christian has been a difference maker for her. She has experienced challenging academics on the Honors / AP track, balanced with grace and understanding from well qualified instructors. We would highly recommend Gaston Christian School. read more

Gaston Christian is overall a great school, the thing bad about GCS is the teachers and students. The students fight, JUUL, and bully. The students bully smaller grades in the Middle School. And for the teachers, they're hypocritical and ignorant. A student can we ripped skinny jeans, get called out for it, and then you'll see 2 other people wearing skinny jeans in the same class but don't get called out. Most of the teachers are 65 - 70 years old and have extremely terrible attitudes, and are extremely mean and their actions are uncalled for. read more

I have grown up in this area and even helped with the layout and construction of the schools current location. I have heard many things about the school throughout the years, mostly unflattering. Regardless, when my wife and I had the opportunity to place our children in the school this year we were very excited. Short lived to say the least. The teaching seems to be alright but the "seasoned teachers" are where the facility falls apart. The school is a giant fraternity. Everyone has been there for years, faculty members are married or related, and they are the most pretentious group of people I have run across in some time and I come across them quite often. I don't have the time or space to break it down but if you aren't one of "their own" you are going to feel it real quick. If you were not in their cliche before you got there and don't immediately assimilate to their way then it is more than likely going to be the highway whether you choose it or they subtly force it. Its too bad because if the older tenured faculty would move on, the younger less influenced group would in my opinion be great. It is a great place to learn but these people think that they are running Harvard or Yale. Anyway, if you talk to people who say they love the place I will almost assure you that you'll come to find out that they are long time members of the inner circle and that they have not a cross word to say about the place. Talk to someone new or that has just enough experience there to see what they have to say before you make your decision. Sorry for the short story, but this would only be the pref-ace if I had the opportunity and time to go on. Have a great day. read more

Our granddaughter attends Gaston Christian. We, and her parents, wouldn't think about sending her anywhere else. GCS is dedicated to teaching Christian character and biblical truths in all areas. The curriculum teaches both the Bible and how the truths of scripture apply to daily life. The teachers and administrators model Christian values which reinforce the same behaviors and beliefs she sees at home. It is a joy to watch her grow spiritually and academically. read more

Oh I could write a book about this school. The education itself is really quite amazing. The staff sadly is filled with all too many hypocritical people. Although I do agree that we should confront our brothers in Christ, in love, and help them overcome spiritual issues in their lives, the staff all too often went overboard and condemned rather than helped. Some of my classmates and myself included, on different occasions, were involved in "scandals" at the school and the amount that GCS tried ignore and push issues under the rug was truly disgusting. Growing up in a Christian household, I always believed in Christ and at a young age accepted Christ as my lord and savior. To be frank, attending GCS from the course of 6th to 11th grade not only made me second guess, but also hate my own religion/beliefs. Being surrounded by so much negativity and seeing how the staff operated on many different levels really shook me to my core. Ultimately, leaving Gaston Christian was one of the better choices I have made in my life and it gave me the opportunity to rediscover and fall in love with Christ without it being shoved down my throat 24/7 by people that don't practice what they preach half of the time. At the end of the day, I am grateful for my experiences at this school as it's what made me into the strong individual I am today, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't wish things played out differently and that I actually enjoyed high school instead of suppressing 90% of my memories during those years. Shout out to Connell, Schofield, Medlin and Mr. Jordan for being such down to earth and truly genuine people that always showed us students how much they really cared about us. I would love to see GCS's business end become less important and for the staff to really focus in on themselves, fix the internal issues and hopefully see that the students truly become the main priority instead of just saying that they are. Actions always speak louder than words! read more

As a Christian School, we had an expectation that GCS would encourage their students to live lives with honor and integrity. We also expected that the head master and administration would also want to display those characteristics to the student body and their families. When our elementary child was a victim of violence and attempted suffocation, at the hands of an older high school Chinese student (from their International Program), we were devastated by their lack of support and their efforts hide and cover up the events. In hind sight, it appears that GCS is incapable of being a place of safety or an advocate for a child victim. Protecting their name is more important to them, than protecting children. It's scary how many children in our nation are victims of domestic violence. Schools are, by law, required to report if they are informed that a child was intentionally hurt and /or abused. How many children has GCS failed by protecting their name and failing in their duty and responsibility to protect children. School are meant to be a safe place to report abuse and violence. read more
