  • Covenant Christian Academy is a K-12 academy, designed for Christian families who wish to provide an exceptional, college-preparatory education for their children that is based on the educational insights of the past (classical education).
  • CCA is a classical school, seeking to recover some centuries-old methods for teaching students.
  • Specifically, we are attempting to recover the methods used by classical educators who taught the Trivium (meaning the three ways)--grammar, logic (or dialectic), and rhetoric.
  • Students in our Grammar School (K-6) focus on learning the English language, with a parallel course in Latin.
  • Students in the Dialectic School focus on learning how to reason, argue, and debate (logic/dialectic) through almost every course they study.
  • Students in the Rhetoric School focus on learning how to speak and write persuasively.
  • Students also study traditonal subjects like math, science, history, art, and music.
