Elementary School(1-4)

Excellent Academics. Faith-Based Culture. True Community.

As a parent of a young child, you’re juggling so many things at the moment. You want an elementary school that gives your child a strong academic foundation, but you also want to be sure they are introduced to the topics of today at the right time — and in a way that aligns with your family’s beliefs.

You can find all of that, and the community you’re looking for, at our private Christian elementary school in Colleyville, located conveniently between Dallas and Fort Worth. Covenant Christian Academy partners with families to build character, integrates the Bible into everyday life lessons, and creates a positive social environment. More specifically, we use a Classical curriculum, offer an average student-teacher ratio of 15:1, include physical education and art as core subjects, and encourage a balance of rest, work, and play for elementary students.

We’re always looking for ways to encourage parent involvement because, by working together, we can surround your child with the kind of loving support that helps them grow and succeed.

We’ve had the best experience at CCA! From before the school year ever started, we were welcomed here with open arms. Our teachers have gone above and beyond to make sure my kids transitioned well to the curriculum, integrated well with other kids, and genuinely care and love my children as their own. The curriculum is extensive and challenging but my kids are thriving and happy. We feel at home at CCA.”

“I’m passionate about my job because God has called me to do it, so I give it all I’ve got for His glory. Christian Education is a great responsibility. It has a higher purpose than just helping students gain knowledge — it’s feeding their souls and helping students learn through a biblical worldview, thereby preparing them for God’s great calling on their lives.”
