In 2001, Glasgow Christian Academy’s weekly homeschool classes were started as a cooperative effort of a few families under the oversight of Glasgow Reformed Presbyterian Church. The original co-op met on Thursday afternoons and offered just a handful of mostly elementary and middle school classes. A few years later, Three M opened its doors to homeschoolers in the surrounding community; the co-op grew significantly, expanded its class offerings, and changed its name to GCA. At one point, GCA had about 300 students in grades Pre-K – 12!
A succession of changes in the church’s leadership resulted in GCA falling under the supervision of Red Lion Christian Academy. Today, GCA exists as ‘the Homeschool Division of RLCA.' GCA also created a diploma program called RLCA at GCA. Students who report to this diploma program are eligible to play DIAA sports at Red Lion Christian Academy.
In September 2023, GCA moved to our new location: Ogletown Baptist Church in Newark. GCA also utilizes the campus of Red Lion Christian Academy for some activities and events.
