Community Christian School

3058 10th Avenue N, Fort Dodge, IA, 50501-0505 -

School Notes Overview:

Community Christian School is a non-denominational school serving grades preschool through eight. Established in 1978, we are sponsored by and housed in the First Evangelical Free Church, but our students and staff represent a wide range of churches and denominations. We exist to serve God through the family, to integrate Christian values through a Biblical curriculum, and to glorify God through Jesus Christ. At CCS, the emphasis is on Christian education. Christian teachers, using a Bible-based curriculum, build a strong foundation of academics and Christian principles within students. This prepares students to examine their environment through a Christian world view. CCS is more than a school, it's a Christian community working together to serve God in guiding His children in their development of a personal relationship with His Son, Jesus Christ. Parents are able to share their primary responsibility in this area with our teachers and staff. ...
