Discovering the ideal educational institution for our children can be a daunting task, but our search led us to CCA, and it has truly exceeded all our expectations. Unlike our previous experience in a different private school where financial concerns seemed to take precedence over student well-being, CCA prioritizes the needs and growth of its students above all else. The standout feature of CCA is undoubtedly its devoted and enthusiastic faculty, whose dedication to education is both inspiring and evident in every interaction. Our children have embraced CCA wholeheartedly, a testament to the school's nurturing atmosphere and unwavering focus on their development and success. We love CCA.

I just drove by my old school and I feel really blessed that my parents placed me into CCA. I'm a freshman at the University of Florida and am grateful for the curriculum and guidance that was instilled by all the wonderful teachers and administration. Our class had the opportunity to meet Tim Tebow who encouraged the class to attend college and continue our faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you CCA for all of the values, confidence, empathy, and discipline you instilled in me as a student.

Spectacular school and curriculum. So glad I moved my children to this school. No more second guessing whether teachers and staff are qualified and or capable of teaching. We had a very bad experience with another local private school and it's owners. The Improvements are impressive and complimentary to CCA core missions, values and principles! They offer Band, Faith and Feet on Fire Run Club, and integrated Biblical Studies! By far the best Private School in Avon Park and Highlands County! Excellent Academy and Directors! We are blessed in so many ways to have our children in the right setting that aligns with sound Christian teachings, morals and values.

I continue to be impressed by the performance of the students and staff. Academic excellence is the norm not the exception with over 70% of the student body on the AA/AB Honor Roll during the end-of-year awards presentation. A caring, compassionate, competent Administration and Teaching Staff regularly communicate with parents to keep them apprised of student performance.

I love CCA! We had our annual Faith and Feet on Fire 5k run. We had a great turn! Sheriff Blackman volunteered 2 deputies to keep the runners and participants safe. They even donated to our cause. Truly proud as a parent of this great school!

Highlands County best private school by far! Some other local Christian school owners have been badmouthing and writing fake bad reviews regarding CCA. I can tell you their academics and professionalism are gifts from the Good Lord. Please cease the bad reviews. Jealousy and envy are not what they teach at CCA.

You are being blessed in ways you cannot even imagine!

Awesome!! We had our children at another local private school. This institution is legitimate and the education standards, curriculum, diversity and service to our community is far beyond and way more advanced compared to Parkview Prep Academy. Thank you CCA. Keep up the the great work and disregard the trolls on Google reviews.
