Christ Classical Academy is a classical Christian school in Tallahassee, Florida that seeks to provide students in grades PreK-12 with an extraordinary education using integrated curriculum, classical teaching, and a Christian worldview.
We seek to equip students to fearlessly engage the fallen world with conviction, grace, wisdom, and compassion.
Through immersion in the riches of western civilization, we train students in essential habits of the mind and spirit.
CCA's vision is to produce students of scholastic, cultural, and theological substance, who are eager to influence their communities for God's glory.
