Why Families Choose
OUR CHRISTIAN SCHOOL

Faith Formation

God’s Word is central to CCA’s teaching philosophy and learning environment. Your child will be nurtured in a Christ-centered atmosphere with teachers who model godly values, biblical integration in the curriculum, worship services, and more.

Foundational Learning

You want your child to grow not only in their comprehension of core subjects — but also learn to question, think, solve problems, and communicate ideas. The academic experience at CCA is built on a classical model that challenges students with a rigorous, college-prep curriculum and encourages them to reach their full potential.

Fellowship & Growth

It’s important for your child to discover their distinct passions and gifts while developing healthy friendships. CCA students have a well-rounded experience through fine arts, physical activity, and other exciting enrichments.

Family & Safety

As a parent, you want a school environment that fosters students’ physical and emotional safety — and a culture where your child is welcomed and loved. At CCA, we have all the modern safety protocols, and we’re small enough to truly know one another. Our teachers pray with, counsel, and mentor students.

SCHEDULE A TOUR

We had an incredible experience interacting with the CCA community during the admissions interview process. From Skylar’s shadow day in Elementary school, where she felt welcomed by her peers, to the faculty and staff going out of their way to make her feel at home, everyone was kind and helpful in every way. The school’s patience in answering our questions, addressing our concerns, and their purposeful implementation of educational and spiritual principles truly stood out. What touched us the most was how the school wasn’t just selling itself; they were guiding, praying, and encouraging us to seek God’s plan for our family. The community’s dedication to a common goal left a lasting impression on us. We were thoroughly impressed with how well the communication was handled. The detailed process of admittance and the welcome gift made for an incredible experience. Through and through, we are excited to be a part of the CCA community.”
