Grace Christian College (GCC), formerly known as Grace Christian High School (GCHS), is an evangelical Protestant school that caters primarily to Chinese Filipino students and provides education from Pre-Nursery to College. It is situated in Grace Village, Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines. Its current president is Christine Joy Tan, succeeding James L. Tan in May 2020.[1]
The school formally opened as Grace Christian High School on July 5, 1950[2] [3] at Nagtahan Street in San Miguel, Manila, by a Chinese educator Julia L. Tan and American Baptist missionaries Edwin and Helen Spahr. In 1966, the school moved to its present location in the newly developed Grace Village, Quezon City, to accommodate an increasing student population while donating the Nagtahan campus to Grace Bible Church for its Christian Academy of Manila. Inauguration for the new campus was held on September 10, 1966. Two years after, the school bought more properties inside Grace Village for further expansion.
The school uses the A BEKA Curriculum in English, Science and Bible.[4]
The Chinese curriculum consists of eight subjects – Chinese Language (華語), Chinese Phonetics (國音), Chinese Composition (作文), Chinese Conversation (會話), Chinese Literature (閱讀), Chinese Computer (電腦)(for highschool), Chinese Writing (寫子), Chinese Culture (綜合) (for Kinder), and Chinese Mathematics (數學) (for kinder).
