Curriculum

CCA curriculum is grounded on the absolute truth of God’s Word, instilling an uncompromising Biblical worldview in our students. CCA leadership has selected Christian-published textbooks that promote academic excellence and are infused with Biblical principles. While textbooks are an important resource for teachers and students, they are only one aspect of a comprehensive academic program.

CCA assesses students to ensure they are challenged academically. Elementary and middle school special area classes will follow an established curriculum and utilize supplemental resources to enhance the educational experience for CCA students.
