Academics

CCS’s academic program equips our children with the tools they need to establish a strong biblical foundation on which they can build the rest of their lives. We provide academic excellence within a Christian framework.  Teachers guide the development of Christian character through daily Bible instruction so that children learn to love and respect the Word of God and their neighbor.  Our students develop strong principles of responsibility and citizenship and are given opportunities to help each other and those in need in our community.

CCS Curriculum

CCS chooses curricula and textbooks from BJU Press and Veritas Press based upon their accuracy in subject matter and ability to present a Christian world view.  CCS administers the Stanford Achievement Test each year so that we may determine student growth and evaluate curricula.  Students consistently surpass the national average scoring in the higher percentile.
Weekly course instruction includes:

  • Bible
  • English Language Arts
  • Social Studies
  • Mathematics
  • Reading
  • Science
  • Art
  • Music
  • Computer
  • Spanish (on rotation)
  • Latin
  • Physical Education

 

Since its founding in 1981, CCS graduates have thrived in their successive academic programs and as maturing young Christians.  Former students, especially those who have spent several years at CCS, have excelled in their high schools, most of them choosing Honors or Gifted classes in school. Among our graduates are valedictorians and students at military academies.

“I felt head and shoulders above my peers in high school because CCS had provided an excellent foundation in grammar.  I can directly attribute my decision to become an English major, and my success in the major, to that training in grammar during my elementary days at CCS.  If for no other reason, the instruction I received in Bible would be enough to convince me to someday send my own children to CCS.”
