School Reviews
5 11/19/2018
All of our children attend Christ's Church Academy. We are thrilled with not only their academic success but also their advancement in fine arts (our daughter is applying to multiple graphic design universities) and athletics (our son has been able to greatly improve during 3 years of football)! Our youngest son struggles with a reading disability and CCA staff have partnered with our family to keep him reading at grade level! They truly take time for each student to make sure they are growing in all areas of childhood development. Excellent academics, competitive athletics, intensive arts program & a focus on Christian values - this school covers all of the points that we value in an education.
