Enrollment and Transfer Students
NOTE: Due to the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, we are not able to enroll anymore new students
for the 2020-2021 school year.

This page is intended to give you some information about Greater Lisbon Christian Academy  in order to help you determine if our school is right for the education of your children. After reading through the information on this page, you will need to make an appointment with the school administrator.  You can set up an appointment by sending an email to abweglca@yahoo.com. The student(s) you wish to enroll will need to come with you to that appointment for an English assessment.

GLCA desires to educate as many students as possible, but class size may limit admission. We are not equipped to handle students with significant learning disabilities or severe emotional or behavior problems. Students with an IEP will be admitted on a case-by-case basis, depending primarily on our ability to meet the student’s academic challenges. At this time we are not admitting students without adequate English proficiency. Families must agree to abide by school policies and support school administration in the implementation of its policies.
