Academics

Grace Brethren High School is home to the Space Brethren Cubesat Laboratory. Opened in 2018, this 200-square-foot facility allows students to design, build, and maintain a CubeSat miniature satellite as part of the school's STEM curriculum. The lab is operated in cooperation with General Dynamics Mission Systems and local businesses. Launch of the satellite is scheduled for 2020.[2]

Grace Brethren High School athletic teams are nicknamed the Lancers. The school is a member of the CIF Southern Section (CIF-SS). As of 2018, the Lancers compete in the Tri-County Athletic Association for all sports except football and in the Marmonte Football Association for football.[3]

Grace Brethren's football team won CIF-SS championships in 2017 and 2018 as well as the CIF State Division 2-AA championship in 2018. The Lancers also appeared in the CIF State Division 2-A title game in 2018. GBHS does not have an on-campus football stadium; the Lancers play home football games at Moorpark College.[1]
