Cherokee Christian School

My daughter graduated from CCS in 2008. Last Saturday we celebrated her graduation from Reinhardt University (debt free!) with a degree in Science, Spanish, and English Education. CCS prepared my daughter 100% for college She received over $80,000 in academic scholarships. She maintained a 4.0 GPA and tutored other college students. She speaks 4 languages and is headed to China to further her studies. The teachers(missionaries IMO) at CCS are amazing. My only warning is CCS is not composed of perfect, super spiritual students. If you want your child to have a fantastic education then this is your place.

CCS has been such a blessing to our family. The school has the best staff of caring, nurturing teachers and administration that makes it feel like family. The Christian based education goes much farther than even the outstanding test results will show; our son's favorite classes are Chapel and Bible. Our daughter is very excited to attend this fall as well!

I have the unique privilege to have been a parent first and teacher second at CCS. After homeschooling our daughter, we decided the best thing for her would be to go to school. We visited CCS and were impressed with the longevity and quality of their teachers. Our daughter started kindergarten and loved it from the start. She received a great academic foundation that prepared her for her coming years at CCS. I started teaching at CCS when my daughter entered first grade. I have taught in many private Christian schools, but they were nothing like CCS. The faculty has a genuine concern for the success of their students. The administration truly cares about their faculty and our families. Teaching at CCS is a joy and it is a wonderful place to minister to families. I count it a privilege to be in my fifth year at CCS!

Looking back upon the four years of high school that I spent at Cherokee Christian, I realize how fortunate I was to be able to attend such a wonderful school. Now as a freshman at Georgia Tech, I realize the education I received at CCS thoroughly prepared me for college. CCS has a curriculum that is both challenging and rewarding. Although the coursework was sometimes difficult, I was constantly given the opportunity to improve my study habits and learning skills. In fact, when I took a few college classes during my senior year at CCS, I found myself to be adequately prepared for them. This has given me a confidence in my academic foundation that has aided me greatly in my current studies at Georgia Tech. I can honestly say that this school has been faithful to their promise of growing students both academically and spiritually.

After moving to Roswell from Florida, we became involved in the public school system. We had heard how great Cobb County schools were, but after 6 months of less than pleasurable experiences, we realized that if we left our children there, the childlike innocence would be lost. Unfortunately, sometimes it takes going through these cicumstances for one to see the reality of our public schools and the stark contrast that a school like Cherokee Christian offers. All three of our children are now at CCS. It has been a huge blessing and we thank God for it everyday because based on our experience, there is no comparison. We continue to recommend families to look into Cherokee Christian Schools.

When we first applied to CCS for our children six years ago, it was a step in faith...not a leap of faith. We knew it was the right 'step' for our children and our family. Over the past six years, we have been overjoyed to see how our children are growing both academically and spiritually. We have also witnessed the progression of their classmates. I watch all the children in carpool both morning and afternoon. I see them happy, very happy to be at school, to see their friends and teachers, to be at CCS. When they leave, they all glow...their smiles and giggles are irreplaceable. I notice not only the abilities of the staff, their knowledge, personalities, diligence, patience, but I also look for the affect it has on all of the children. Our family couldn't be more pleased. We trust Cherokee Christian Schools with our most important investment...our children.

I am grateful to teach at Cherokee Christian. I can speak of truths and failings that I have experienced during my Christian life without worrying about being PC which allows me to be myself and be an effective teacher. Our administration is extremely supportive, our staff has an extraordinarily positive chemistry, our families are involved in their children s academics, and the Lord continues to bless our school. Graduates who go onto college often come back and tell us how well prepared they were. And even the few who do not make it to college directly tell us how glad they are to have been at our school. It has been a great privilege to come along side our parents as they seek to prepare their children for life beyond high school. Our teachers look forward to having more families dedicated to Christian education to join our community at Cherokee Christian.

We have two daughters at Cherokee Christian and it is a wonderful school! The administration, teachers, and staff all have a servants heart. The curriculum is challenging and we know our girls are getting a terrific education that will prepare them for the future. Most importantly though, you can feel the Spirit of the Lord at work within the school. It is so wonderful to know that the school is partnering with us in the spiritual and academic growth of our children! My husband and I have grown too in our knowledge and faith through books, conferences and classes offered at the school. Our whole family has been so blessed by this school!! God is doing great things at Trickum Rd. in Woodstock, Ga.

My children have been students at the Cherokee Christian for eight years, and they love it. The school has been a valuable partner with me in raising my kids to understand a Godly perspective of His creation. While I struggle as a parent with ideas about what is best for my kids, CCS has stayed the course focusing on the Lord s call to bring up my children according to His Word. My children enjoy a great relationship with their teachers, challenging academics, deep friendships, and a Christ-centered community. I think that any true Christian who wants to allow their children to be instructed properly not like the please-anyone-who-is-possibly-offended government sees fit would be blessed to have their children at Cherokee Christian.

In 2002, we were led to enroll our eldest son in Kindergarten at CCA. We had no concept of how it would impact our families lives. The school atmosphere has not only taught our son to be a faith filled, well educated young man, it has been a faith lifting experience for our entire family. We continue to attend CCA with 3 children enrolled. It is a blessing to know they are nourished mind, body and soul every single day!!!
