Elaine and her husband Marc have been blessed with six children, all of whom attend or have attended Grace Prep. Candace graduated in 2007, and is a nursing student at Texas Women's University.

Marc is a sophomore, Mallory is an 8th grader, and Matthew is a 7th grader.

“I absolutely love serving and interacting with the families as well as the faculty and staff here at Grace Prep. We are so much more than a school; we are a community of parents, teachers, and servants in Christ who desire a better way to educate our children while protecting and preserving what it becoming increasingly difficult to maintain—family time.”

Coach Reed joined us in 2009, bringing an impressive 10 years of both coaching and on-the-field experience to our student athletes. While playing football for the University of Oklahoma as a defensive end from 1982-1987, Coach Reed played in the Big Eight Championship games in 1984, 1985, and 1986. In 1985, he was a member of the National Championship team, and in 1987, he graduated with a BA in communication and received an Academic All Big-Eight Award. After graduation, he went on to play as a defensive lineman for the Denver Broncos, making the team as a free-agent (non-drafted player) and playing in the Superbowl that same year. He coached outside linebackers at North Gwinnett High School in Suwanee, GA, and became the defensive coordinator of Northview High School in Duluth, GA.
 

Coach Reed has three grown children, Roshunda, Richard, and Lauren. He feels blessed to be a part of the Grace Prep family.
 

"Initially, I was drawn to Grace Prep by the reputation and rich tradition. But after taking a closer look, I realized the true uniqueness of the “Grace Family” atmosphere, and I wanted to be a part of it."

"As I do a lot of work behind the scenes, I can attest to the fact that Grace Prep really is a special place, with staff fully committed to the academic and spiritual growth of our kids. It is a blessing to be a part of His work here."

“It is such a privilege to enter into prayer with and for our families, especially when the students approach me and ask me to pray with them. This is a special blessing from our Lord: to be able to intercede in prayer, without regard for place, time, or circumstance, with His children and for His children, including parents and grandparents. So many times we intercede especially for extended family members to come into a knowledge of who Jesus is, what He can do, and how much we need His indwelling Spirit to enter into all of us.”

“I consider it a privilege to work at Grace Prep. It has been a blessing to serve the wonderful families that have been a part of GPA life for the last 12 years. It is always a great day to be a LION!”
