We are a private school in the city, a light in the community.
History:
What began as a ministry of Tower Grove Baptist Church now boasts an enrollment of nearly 300 students in grades preK-12, serving families from St. Louis, Jefferson, Franklin, and St. Charles counties, as well as the City of St. Louis and western Illinois. Tower Grove provides a preschool program where children play, learn, experiment, and grow at their own rate. Tower Grove also provides a challenging and comprehensive elementary, middle and high school program. A college preparatory program, TGCA develops competence in Bible, English, fine and practical arts, mathematics, physical education, technology, health, science and social studies. The Bible is integrated in all subjects. Over 90% of our graduates go on to attend college.
Vision:
The goals of Christian education at TGCA are:
1. to provide a Biblically-based academic program
2. to partner with parents in the education of their children
3. to guide the student in the development of a Biblical world view.
Philosophy:
All truth is God's truth. The basis for the educational philosophy of TGCA is the Bible, which is authoritative and inerrant. Therefore, the school curriculum and extra-curricular activieies reflect Biblical principles and values. (Romans 11:36) TGCA endeavors to be used by the Holy Spirit to help each student develop a Biblical world view and reach his/her God-given potential. This can only become a reality in an individual who has chosen faith in Christ as Savior and lord. (John 16:13)
