School Reviews

I am a parent of a 7th grader at CCA. This school is a blessing to us. They have turned my son completely around with academics, where the public school system has failed him. These wonderful teachers care about the students, not just in academics, but mentality-wise as well. They encourage them, to do their best in all aspects of learning not just in school, but with friendships, and being a good person to others. My son has thanked me so much for placing him in this school. I love the fact he is learning out-of-school textbooks, instead of a Chromebook in front of him all day long. My son has gone from barely passing his grade when he was in 6th, to making A/B honor roll. My favorite of all about CCA is Jesus is in this School, along with all his teachings of him. That is something the public schools greatly need to put back in place.
