Our Graduates

On Wednesday, Darius Slayton (GAC Class of 2015) returned to campus and shared a powerful message with the next generation of Spartans. The New York Giants wide receiver took time to speak at the Lower School, Middle School, and High School chapels, sharing heartfelt wisdom from his journey—from his days at GAC to playing in the SEC at Auburn University and eventually making his mark in the NFL.

Darius Slayton, a GAC graduate (Class of 2015) and New York Giants wide receiver, has been named the 2025 Alan Page Community Award winner by the NFL Players Association. In recognition, the NFLPA will donate $100,000 to his Left-Hand Right-Hand (LHRH) Foundation, which serves underserved communities.

Through his recent internship with Surfing the Nations (STN), Cooper Keyes '20 found a powerful way to blend his passion for action sports with a desire to make a difference in the world.

Two actors had an unlikely connection in a summer performance at the Lionheart Theatre in Norcross: Greater Atlanta Christian School. This summer, a local theatre company performed “The Enchanted Bookshop,” a heartwarming story about the power of literature and imagination. From Dorothy to Robin Hood to Tom Sawyer, this play focuses on a fictional story of our favorite childhood characters coming to life. In the play, these characters are faced with helping save their bookstore or protecting their own existence. Eighteen actors of all ages (9-50+) worked together to create a family-friendly story that touched the hearts of all who attended.
