GFA is a faith operation. Tuition and fees do not cover the total cost of education for the students. Each year, almost 25% of the costs are paid through gifts and other fundraising activities. The faculty and staff, by working for reduced wages, provide much of the support for the Academy. It is imperative that parents make commensurate sacrifices in this most vital area of education. Therefore, each family is asked to help in whatever way possible during the year to make Christian education possible for their children
