CCA is pleased to be a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and is pursuing accreditation through their program. ACSI is a highly regarded Christian accreditation program. Accreditation with ACSI engages schools in a vigorous, holistic process of organizational appraisal and improvement that engages every school constituent. Every step in the accreditation process is designed to be useful for driving improvement in private schools so they can truly flourish. Accreditation assesses a school’s performance in foundational areas of Christian education: Bible knowledge and Biblical worldview, academic excellence, life skills and practical application of knowledge, and character building and spiritual formation.
CCA will also pursue accreditation through Cognia.
School hours are tentatively 8:00 am-3:00 pm.

The Bible is the Word of God, without error, and the lens through which we view and determine all matters of education and life. It permeates every aspect of CCA. CCA will utilize a unique, classically influenced curriculum infused with a Biblical worldview.
Through robust offerings in academics, the arts, athletics, and more, an education at CCA is focused on Calling Prep.

CCA plans to offer music and arts programs, foreign languages, health/physical education, and STEM-based learning opportunities.
The heart behind CCA’s approach to special needs is to build out an extensive special needs program to accommodate and provide a strong, Biblically-based Christian education for as many students as possible. With that goal in mind, our plan as we start in 23-24 is to offer limited special needs support as we build that program, in order to do all that we do with excellence.
CCA will offer classes to challenge students and meet the needs of students working above grade level.
CCA plans to offer robust opportunities for community service, mission trips and community engagement. Community service will be a graduation requirement.

Yes, every applicant is required to submit a pastoral reference who can attest to the applicant’s walk with the Lord.
If your child attends Cornerstone Children’s or Middle School Ministry, you can send your recommendation requests to Pastor Ken or Pastor Barrett. If not, you can send your request to a pastor who is familiar with your child’s attendance at church and/or church activities.
Applicants will be notified if space becomes available after admissions decisions are made. If a student is not enrolled this year, he/she may reapply next year.
CCA plans to hold an open house in the spring of 2023.
Each family is required to interview with our admissions committee. This allows our team to spend one-on-one time with both parents and prospective students (students in grades 5th-8th will participate in family interviews) The interview serves both parents and faculty to gauge a school-life balance and alignment. After that meeting, the admissions committee will determine if an offer of enrollment will be presented. The offer will be communicated to the family via email.
To be determined.
