School Reviews

We have had children attending Cornerstone Christian School for 17 years, with 3 more yeas to go. CCS has been such a blessing to our family. Our two oldest children both were accepted into Texas A&M University and have since graduated. The academic preparation that they received at CCS was instrumental in their success in college. The Christian values and biblical teaching at Cornerstone Christian School line up with our family's Christian values and beliefs. The atmosphere at CCS is loving and family oriented.

I attended Cornerstone Christian School from Kindergarten through 12th grade. I am beyond grateful for this school. The teachers and staff are absolutely incredible people who shaped me into who I am today. I loved the Christ centered environment so much that I decided to pursue my further education at a Christian university. I was blessed to be apart of several sports teams in my time at Cornerstone and one of my fondest memories is when my basketball team made it to the state championship. I truly have nothing but great things to say about this school. Without it I would not be where I am today. Special thanks to all my teachers, coaches, and life long friends for all the memories!

Cornerstone has been a great school for our family. Great atmosphere, challenging curriculum. Our kids were always prayed over by their teachers and coaches. We have had two of our children graduate from Cornerstone, the school prepared them well for college. Our last child is a member of the 2020 class. We love Cornerstone!
