Message from Head of School
Welcome from the Head of School
Thank you for considering Charleston Christian School! As a K5-8 Christian school, we’re passionate about more than just academics—we’re here to teach knowledge, wisdom, and values from a Christ-centered perspective. It’s a privilege to lead a team of dedicated educators who see teaching as their calling.
Our goal goes beyond preparing students for high school success. At CCS, we nurture a love for lifelong learning, fostering curiosity and helping students discover their unique purpose. Together with parents, our teachers guide and support students as they explore their identity and who God has called them to be.
At Charleston Christian School, the personal relationships built between teachers and students are key to helping them grow in knowledge, wisdom, and faith. We’re committed to nurturing hearts, sharpening minds, and preparing students for a journey that goes far beyond high school.
While our website offers a glimpse into life at CCS, the best way to truly experience it is by visiting us in person! To schedule a tour or request more information, feel free to email our Director of Admissions, Shelley Fipps, at sfipps@charlestonchristian.org.
Blessings,
Ashley Chandler, Ed.M.
Head of School
