Grace Academy

Non-denominational evangelical Christian school in Marysville · grades K-12 · 423 students (Washington State Board of Education, 2024-25) · consultation-gated admissions, accredited by Cognia and the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI)

The verdict

On paper Grace Academy is a K-12; in practice it is a thriving Christian elementary school with a very small high school attached. The 2024-25 state roster shows 236 students in K-5 and just 86 across all of grades 9-12, with a fourth-grade class of 51 shrinking to a senior class of 13. So the question is not really "is this a good school" but "for which years." Demand for the lower grades is rising: enrollment is up about 15% since 2021-22, growth hard to separate from the meltdown next door, where the Marysville School District has operated under state-imposed binding conditions since 2024. Know one thing before you visit: the school publishes no tuition figures at all, and prices are disclosed only inside a mandatory "Educational Success Consultation" with a principal. Families seeking Bible-integrated formation with small classes through 8th grade will find a stable, orderly community. Families counting on Advanced Placement (AP) courses, competitive teams in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), or a full-sized high school social world should plan the exit years in advance, because most Grace families evidently do.

The real comparison is against your public options.

Tuition here runs five figures a year, the question is what it buys over the public schools your address already gives you.
