School Notes
- CCCA is dedicated to training our students to be the leaders of tomorrow, godly young men and women, who are equipped to trouble-shoot and problem solve the complexities of modern life while remaining grounded in their faith. As a Christian school, the study of God`s word and the spiritual disciplines of worship and prayer are integral to school life.We also seek to provide our students with knowledge that will benefit 21stcentury learners, such as literacy skills, hands-on math and science instruction and the integration of technology into the curriculum. Further, we seek to provide our students real life opportunities to apply their learning so they are not only replete with skills for success, but also able to positively impact the surrounding community.As we look toward the future we also remain grounded in the past. We understand that orthodox educational practices transcend the ages. We remain steadfast in exposing our students to classic children`s literature, Christian comportment and the fine arts both visual and performing. Not only has participation in fine arts programming been proven again and again to promote academic achievement, but it is health for the heart of a child as well as the head.Tours and additional information available upon request.
