I really feel that CCS went above and beyond to help me become the person I am today, in more ways than one. While I was phenomenally academically prepared for college and further education, I was also very prepared for life after college. Spiritually, fundamentally, and socially, CCS really helped mold me into the person I am today and has certainly been instrumental to my success in life following graduation.

As the parent of two Concord students, my wife and I remain incredibly grateful for the way teachers, staff, and coaches continue to pour into our kids. CCS also does a great job with biblically integrating each subject's content matter.
