Dear GCS Parents,

As we approach the 2025-26 academic year, I am writing to share some exciting developments and important updates regarding the tuition schedule at Gaston Christian School. It continues to be a primary focus of our leadership team to ensure that we balance the delivery of an exceptional Christian education with a commitment to keeping tuition costs as accessible as possible.

I am pleased to announce our East Cleveland campus’s successful opening, which serves Preschool through 6th grade students. This expansion reflects our dedication to meeting the growing needs of our community while preserving the mission and values that define Gaston Christian School. At the same time, our Gastonia campus remains at full capacity in Early Childhood through 8th grades, underscoring the trust and confidence you place in our program.

You will find the tuition schedule for the upcoming school year attached. While there is an increase in rates, this adjustment is essential to maintaining the high standards of education and care we strive to provide. These funds allow us to continue investing in our most valuable assets—our dedicated teachers and staff—by ensuring competitive compensation, robust professional development opportunities, and the resources necessary to sustain a thriving learning environment.

We recognize that affordability is a significant consideration for families. I am pleased to note that the recent expansion of the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship Program will bring meaningful financial support to many of our families. Additionally, GCS continues to offer a comprehensive financial aid program to assist those who may need help navigating these changes.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of GCS. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to educate your children and to share in their academic and personal growth. It is my sincere hope that your family will remain part of the GCS community for many years to come.

Should you have any questions regarding the new tuition schedule, the NC Opportunity Scholarship, or our financial aid program, please do not hesitate to contact our business office.

As we look ahead to another year of learning and growth, we are reminded of our school verse: “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding” (Proverbs 9:10). It is our prayer that this truth will guide and inspire all that we do as a community committed to Christ-centered education.

With gratitude and blessings,

Dr. Marc Stout

Head of School
