Music Classes

We are pleased to be able to offer weekly music classes to all kindergarten through high school students, providing them with an exceptional opportunity to explore the realm of melody, rhythm, and harmony. Our skilled and passionate music instructors will guide students on an enriching journey, honing their musical talents and nurturing a deep appreciation for the gift of music. From learning basic notes and chords to mastering advanced techniques and performance skills, our music program is designed to inspire a lifelong love for music and foster a sense of artistic fulfillment among our students.

Private Piano Lessons

At Gateway Christian Academy, we take pride in nurturing well-rounded students, and to complement our regular curriculum, we offer piano lessons for beginner-level students. These specialized lessons are available to GCA students at an additional cost, ensuring a tailored approach to their musical development. The demand for these classes is often high, resulting in a waiting list that speaks to the popularity and excellence of our music program. The extra charge for these classes is conveniently billed monthly, making it accessible and easy for parents to support their child’s artistic growth.

Chapel Music

In weekly GCA Chapel meetings, students often take part in the music by leading the songs and playing instruments. This opportunity allows students to become stronger musicians and provides an experience where students can get a taste of what it is like to lead ministry. Whether they are leading their fellow classmates in worship from the platform or joining their voices together unto the Lord from their seats, Chapel is an unforgettable experience!
