Cornerstone Christian Academy

This school is firmly founded on the Word of God. The principal is a hard working, understanding, and wise individual who invests time in the students on a whole and individually as well. The school staff is made up of teachers and coaches who fear the Lord and are honest and real. CCA is not perfect, true, but God has blessed it greatly. There are many opportunities to serve the community and abroad, including the CCA Missions program that takes older students to Central America. As far as academics go, there is a varied range of teaching styles, which is very useful for preparing students for the kinds of teachers they will meet in college. The writing department is absolutely superb and trains students to be top-notch writers, as college professors have attested. The drama department is also offers fabulous productions for students to participate in. Some of the sports programs make the best out of what they have, but some of the teams are made up of championship winning athletes. On a final note, even families who aren't well off have been blessed with the opportunity to attend, and God will provide if it's His will for your student to attend.

I love the school!!! I love the staff!!! The staff are very caring. The principal has a relationship with the kids. My child loves the school and gets upset when school is closed. She has made friends at school. I have a sense of family at the school. Academically, I feel as though my child is excelling. The environment is very different than public school. Children actually have moral standards and this reinforced at school. They actually reinforce Christian principles.

I have several children at Cornerstone and have found it to be a school committed to being as biblical as it can be by God's grace. Unfortunately, some commentators on this site are clearly not committed to being the same. Don't let disenchanted critics stop you from experiencing Cornerstone for yourself. Their website is www.ccc-impact.info

I am an ex-employee and parent of a former student. CCA offers a poor education that does not stand up to nearby schools. True, students appear to do well on the SAT/ACT, but the reality is that students are 1-2 years behind their peers at other nearby schools (public and private) and are very poorly prepared for college. The administration is ineffective at running the school. It is at best a mystery when (or if) school-related events will occur. Athletics are adequate where they exist but suffer from the same disorganization. The facilities are good. Unfortunately, despite the promise in their name, there is little "Christian" about the school (I mean really, does Jesus command that there be a coffee shop in the church?) and it exists primarily to separate parents frightened of the world from their money; resulting in equally frightened and closed up children. You can do better.

Very caring teachers, strong academics, and a very pure environment for children to learn in. It is wonderful that my children can be in a caring, god loving place all day and be learning at the same time. Would recommend this school to anyone who is looking for the best for their children.

I am a former teacher at CCA. CCA is certainly not an elite private school in the academic arena, and lacks the depth of classes found in even basic public schools (no band, only 1 foreign language, limited art classes, etc). The teachers are mostly nice and competent, but due to extremely low salary there is high staff turnover and some teachers who are not very skilled. The administration is 'all powerful,' but mostly fair and they seem to make an honest attempt to run their school on Christian principles. If you are looking for a Christian school with nice kids, moderate cost, and a conservative evangelical outlook, this could be a great fit. The student body is definitely the best thing going for CCA - I've never met so many thoughtful, creative and respectful teens in one place. If you are looking for an elite academic experience or strong athletics, look

After three years of attending this school we left due to the academics and leadership. As we feared, our children were behind in math and other studies. At CCA our children were A adverage students. In the public school they are mostly C.

My daughter goes to K-4 class at CCA and I must say I am more than impressed with the academics. In the 4 months since she has started school she has learnt all the phonic sounds, can count up to 100 and write her first name. From what we have felt, her class teacher is the perfect blend of being a good disciplinarian, along with being loving, caring and God fearing. My daughter loves to go to school.

I am a gradute of cornerstone, and I have to say the school is terrible. I found myself very unprepared for colllege, I have had to use the tactics and study habits I learned at my previous school. Basically cca is a joke in my book. I would not advise anyone to send their children there if they want them to recieve an education..
