Christ The King Catholic School

Since 1954, Christ the King's mission has been to welcome children into our parish school, offering them an excellent, competitive, safe working environment filled with dedication, challenge, and hope.
Christ the King is a Catholic School rooted in the tradition of christ-centered values serving as a dynamic center of excellence for lifelong learning and community-based leadership to cultivate the potential of children and young adults to succeed in a competitive global society.
At Christ the King, we strive for our students to become increasingly self-directing, moving from dependent childhood to self-actuating adolescents by providing a Christ-centered environment that emphasizes our Catholic faith and Gospel values. Through differentiated instruction, CTK aims to provide academic challenges to reach each learner.
CTK's Middle School students are eligible to graduate with up to five high school credits.
Integrated technology in our classrooms and curriculum enhances the educational experience for our students through our project-based learning activities, incorporating technology tools like interactive whiteboards, Google Classroom, and one-to-one technology for all students.
