The mission statement of Carrollton Christian Academy is to "develop future leaders through Christ-centered academics, art, and athletics, who choose Character before career, Wisdom beyond scholarship, Service before self and Participation as a way of life." Carrollton Christian Academy is a college preparatory school for grades pre-kindergarten through 12th, but it is much more than a "private school." It is a distinctly Christian school, which strives to equip each student academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually at a reasonable cost. The administration, faculty, and staff are committed to integrating Biblical principles into all facets of school life, curricular and extracurricular, and to help students determine God's will for their lives. We hold precious our role in preparing students who may be called into full-time ministry, and work diligently to provide a gentle balance of guidance, encouragement, instruction, and example. Our continual purpose is to glorify God by offering Him our best.

School Reviews:

  • Recommended May 21,2012 - Are you looking for a school where your child can be nurtured, can be recognized for the individual that he or she is? Are you looking for a school where almost all of the school''s teachers (not just his/her teacher) know the kids by name? Are you looking for a school where the parents, teachers, and administration work together to ensure the most successful education, the most well-rounded experience possible for your child? Then you are looking for Carrollton Christian Academy. We have been at CCA for 9 years and have been so thrilled it. My oldest is a history buff, my middle is a math pro, and my youngest is "here for the party" - the teachers have figured this out and work around their unique giftings and challenges to encourage them to flourish. I wouldn''t go anywhere else.*-Posted by Parent *
  • Recommended May 21,2012 - This school is amazing! The teachers know nearly all the kids (pk-12) by name, the administrators are committed to being known by and communicating with the parents, the academic programs are excellent, and I love that it isn''t just Christians who go here (very mission-minded private school).*-Posted by Parent *
