The Grace Presbyterian Christian Day School encompasses both full and part-time programs.

The Part-time Program is a school-year program, operating according to the Plano ISD Calendar. This program educates toddlers through pre-kindergarteners. The hours for this program are 9:00am-2:00pm.

Our full-time program serves children from one year of age through pre-kindergarteners and is operated year-round. The hours for this program are 7:00am-6:00pm.

In addition to the school-year programs, Grace Presbyterian Christian Day School offers an exciting, activity-filled summer camp for six weeks in the summer. Children enjoy the fast-paced activities, the many theme days, and spending time with their peers in this exciting program. 

Grace Presbyterian Christian Day School employs caring teachers in a Christian environment. As one of the few full-time Christian child-care centers in the area, we provide a unique service to the community. Children attending the GPCDS programs benefit from the low teacher-student ratios as well as the fun, theme-based curriculum.

The day to day operations of the Grace Presbyterian Christian Day School are managed by a highly-qualified director and assistant director. The Children’s Weekday Ministry,  composed of members of Grace Presbyterian Church and GPCDS parents,  guides the decision-making process for the school. The ministry is part of the Children’s Commission of the church and the Elders assigned to the Children’s Commission attend the monthly ministry meetings regularly. The Children’s Weekday Ministry meets monthly, on the third Thursday of the month at 7:00pm. The Ministry traditionally does not meet in the months of June or July.
