One of the best things to ever happen to me. I transferred in my 6th grade year, and I am now about to enter my senior year. The teachers care so deeply for all of their students, and will pray with you whenever you ask them to. The academics challenge me, and I enjoy the access to take college classes in our 11th and 12th year. The school is constantly growing, yet they try to keep the class sizes small. They truly show the love of God through everything they do. They will give you the shirt off their back to make sure you and your family are taken care of. They helped me through the loss of my dad. Teachers would stop me just to ask if they could pray over me. They lead me to Christ and showed me what it was truly like to have a relationship with God. I am forever grateful and I encourage you to make the switch to Community Christian Academy.

CCA has changed our lives so much for the better. Coming from public school we came into open arms. The Staff is so devoted to the kids!

Perfect school. I have never seen people so devoted to teaching children like the teachers at this school. The owners of the school demonstrate what Christians should be. There`s not a school on this earth better than this one. I wouldn`t dream of sending my child anywhere else

Great Christian values, wonderful curriculum and teaching! These students are more like family and I am wonderfully blessed to have my child a part of it! They are very affordable and the education is superb. I can personally say this because my child started attending the local community college in her Junior year and will graduate high school with a full year of college completed also. They have great staff and Administration that truly love each other and the students. I would love to give way more than 5 stars!!

As an involved parent of a CCA student I couldn't be more please with the completion of our first year at Community Christian Academy. CCA teachers understand education - that it's more than just providing information, but teaching and applying the lessons in a fun fashion for the students. With small classrooms CCA teachers provide a love of learning in the students. Additionally, we are fortunate that CCA's teacher and staff set Christian examples and teach biblical morals and values to our children on a daily basis. Students are taught to respect themselves and others, to be responsible members of a school community, and to understand that actions have consequences (whether good or bad). I am thankful that my child is a part of such a wonderful school body.

Community Christian Academy is not just a Christian school. Although, above all it is a school that teaches the KJV Bible and Jesus. It is a home to a number of kids that not only learn academics together, but learn to love one another the way Jesus expects us too. The students and staff at CCA are more like a family. Family that encourages each other when one is down or going through a hard time, not only in their studies but in life itself. They pray for one another. This world takes a lot from our children, and it is very comforting to know that my child is in a place that teaches her the most important thing in life is salvation, truth and love. I truly believe she gets all these plus academics and more. I also teach at CCA and I am very proud to do so. Pastor David Ross and Bessemer City Community Church have a true burden for children to be saved spiritually and spared as much cruelty of this world as possible. Their vision for this school goes farther than you can ever see with human eyes. It has taken a lot of faith and prayers to make this all possible and I am looking forward to years from now seeing what God has done in growing this school. To God be all the Glory!

Community Christian is a wonderful school! We have 2 children that go there and they love it and I know that I can trust all the teachers and workers. They offer a great education, chapel services each week, athletics and EVERYTHING is centered around JESUS which is WONDERFUL! It is also VERY affordable @ only $ 240.00 per month!

I have 2 grandchildren at CCA. They love this school and I do too. They have great Christian teachers. They are getting a good education and getting taught Christian values also. They always score at or above grade level on their tests
