Concordia was a great school when I attended. I also sent my two daughters to Concordia. Until we moved out of state. I loved my Concordia family.

Excellent Christian school with wonderful teachers! My son has excelled in every way here. He is far above his grade level in testing. Faith classes and chapel have developed him into a wonderful young Christian!

What a great school! A bit of a hidden gem in Jonesboro. My son has completed Pre-K to 1st grade and we have been so pleased with his progress academically and spiritually. Each day starts with faith class where the good news is shared. His reading and spelling is leaps and bounds above his peers in other area schools. His 1st grade class was combined with 2nd grade and the teachers, seeing his potential, moved him up into upper grades for his reading and math to further challenge him. Where else would you get this type of personal attention? We most certainly recommend CCA. What a wonderful school and family!

My daughter is finishing her first year at Concordia Christian Academy, completing the sixth grade. She is more confident, happy and overall satisfied with her education than she has ever been. All the staff, including the principal, teachers and support staff, actually seem to care about the students and whether or not they succeed in life. She has commented that all of the students in the school are friends, and show concern for the feelings and needs of one another. My daughter's father passed away in October of 2011, and the staff and students have been so supportive to her, which means an awful lot when you''re 11 and find yourself without a daddy. The teachers take the time to offer individual instruction if needed, giving the students the extra confidence building help they need. I whole-heartedly recommend CCA for top quality education!
