Our goal is that we become a biblical, Christian school in every way, not just a school for Christians.

1 Timothy 4:15 - "Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them,
so that everyone may see your progress."

Biblical Integration into the Academic Arena
The spiritual atmosphere in the classroom is strongly emphasized throughout the entire day. Every day begins with daily devotions - the elementary in their individual classrooms and the junior high and high school in a corporate setting. Classes regularly begin with prayer and/or a short devotion or Bible reading, and teachers are encouraged to engage in prayer as needed. Every element of curriculum is permeated with God's word. Chapel is held once a week for all grades and serves two purposes: to worship, giving thanks to God for all that He is and does for us, and to engage in a time of spiritual teaching and development as God's truths are implanted in each mind and heart.

Academic Year
The academic year at CCS is divided into two semesters each composed of 2 quarters. Report cards will be issued at the end of each nine-week grading quarter. Progress reports will be published at the four-week mark (3rd and 6th week in elementary grades) and grade alerts will be sent home at the six-week mark to those junior high and high school students receiving the mark of D or F. In addition, K-6th grades will hold conferences with all parents at the end of the 1st quarter and upon teacher or parental request after that. Parents may schedule a conference at any time with any teacher or administrator by calling the office.

Graduations
CCS has graduation and promotion ceremonies for kindergarten, 8th grade and seniors. To participate in the 8th grade promotion and 8th grade trip, students must be passing all classes. Chapel dress is appropriate for the promotion ceremony. No formals.

Diplomas will be issued to seniors who earn 26 high school credits. Seniors will not walk through graduation if they are failing a class at the 8th semester. If a senior is missing a credit and is enrolled in a course to make it up, he/she may walk, but the diploma will be withheld until that course is successfully completed. Course work must be completed by September 30th of the graduation year for a diploma to be issued. Diplomas will also be withheld until all due balances are paid in full. Graduates will wear cap and gowns. Transcripts are available by inquiring at the office. Class Valedictorian(s) and Salutatorian(s) must have been a high school student at CCS for a full two years. Persons receiving this honor are selected based on 7th semester cumulative GPA.
