What They Say ...

---- Students ----

“I like being here because there are many ways to encourage students to work harder. Subjects like math, science, English, Spanish, and history give us a challenge. We go to ACSI events, and we learn and have fun when going. Everybody knows everybody, so it’s really easy to make friends. All new kids are welcomed into the school.” - Sixth Grader

“The teachers not only help me in school subjects, but also in learning about God and His wonderful creation. The principal’s talks help me understand the relationship of God and the marvelous creatures in His creation. It is a blessing to go to this Christian school and learn about God. Thank you, teachers!" - Fourth Grader

“I love my school because my teachers are so kind to everyone.” - Third Grader

“I think CCA is a great school because our teachers encourage us during hard times. They actually want us to learn.” - Sixth Grader

“The teachers here at CCA rejoice with the students when they have earned a reward for their good efforts; the students are privileged with more of their teacher’s time than at a public school.” - Eight Grader

“Two words come to mind that describe the school – fun and educational. Every three years, the middle school class gets to go to Washington, D.C. The teachers are encouraging and very helpful.” - Seventh Grader

---- Teachers ----

“The groupings of different grade levels together (e.g.- 3rd-5th grade in one classroom) makes for a more realistic learning environment and better prepares children for the 'real world' than a more typical public/private school that would teach children by individual grade levels.” - Teacher

“The student to teacher ratio is such that students receive amazing one-on-one time. Students that need to be challenged more are given more challenge and can work ahead of their grade level, and those that need more time to grow are given such time and attention.” - Teacher

“One of the great blessings of CCA is the close link between home and school. Parents and teachers work together to solve problems, and students understand that the adults in their life are on the same page when it comes to serving the Lord.” - Teacher

“Excellent in teaching children to memorize Scripture, catechism, and poetry. The children's joy and ability to commit Scripture to memory are demonstrated in the classroom and also the big school programs that are given throughout the year.” - Teacher

“Every single child is given multiple opportunities throughout the year to learn to be on a stage, to perform, to speak, to sing, to recite. These lessons in hard work and perseverance will probably stay with the children through their lifetime.” - Teacher

“We love our students! I heard a speaker at a teacher convention advising the audience, 'Be an actor and pretend to love your students.' At CCA we really DO love them, and they know it.” - Teacher

---- Parents ----

“I am thankful for the education which my three covenant children have received at CCA. I appreciate that the basis of this school is the Word of God. We are blessed with competent and godly staff concerned not only for the students’ academic learning, but also for their spiritual growth and love for the Savior.”

“One of the great assets of our school is the teacher-to-student ratio. The individualized teaching is truly a gift so that each student is able to learn at the pace that is best for him or her.”
