My three children have attended CDA for 7 years now and we could not be more pleased with the experience! I have a child in 5th, 8th, and 11th and while it is hard work in the younger grades, it pays off! I am so pleased with the man my oldest has become and I attribute a large part of his character to the teachers and students at CDA. My children have been able to be challenged academically while still being able to participate in extracurricular activities and have plenty of family time. An added benefit is that the format of the school has made my children experts in managing their time.
We have been very pleased with the quality of education as well as the nurturing environment that CDA has to offer to it's students. Our experience and interactions with the teachers have been excellent as well.
A teacher from this school was a rep with Advantage Conferences. Advantage Conferences was a religious based scam that had a 98% loss rate as derived from the suit that pyramid scheme filed against the wonderful Better Business Bureau of Dallas. The BBB won that frivolous, groundless suit in Summary Judgment, but that educator continued to push that questionable opportunity for two more years and hundreds of Christians were left with thousands of dollars in losses. I hope that now that the school is aware of this alarming situation the faculty will be screened much more carefully and that educator will not be allowed back in a classroom. A teacher should walk the talk and set a fine example of Christian living that students can emulate.
This school has hired staff with questionable backgrounds. Folks using Chritanity to recruit their fellow Christians into numerous MLMs and pyramid schemes should not be teaching children. The teachers should be an example for the children of behaviour they can model. What kind of message does this send? How can an educator that uses religion for financial gain be a fit role model?
Parent of four kids, involved with this school for six years. I have watched the 'co-teaching' aspect of this school decline with each passing year. The administration is so focused on test scores that the quality of the education has been on the decline. This school does not have an appropriate expectation level of younger students. If you enroll you should be prepared to abandon all extra curricular activities and be willing to forfeit your family weekends. The last three teachers that we have had have not been worth the money spent on the tuition. The school is an excellent concept and should be able to be fabulous but it just is not worth the money.

This is a wonderful school. The classes are small; the teachers care and the building of a relationship between the parent and the teacher is awesome. It is a LOT of work but the kids learn so much and what a better time to learn things then when they are young! They learn great study principles for when they grow older. Perfectly equiping our kids for a great future
This is a wonderful school. It is especially perfect for those who are on the line about homeschooling and would like a good hybrid between full time school and schooling completely at home. The quality of the education is excellent; but you still have a lot of involvement with your child's education. Parental involvement in the school is phenomenal and there is a true teamwork relationship between families and CDA. The days your child is not in a classroom are not 'days off' and you need to be prepared to work hard on those days. On the other hand, your child is going to graduate knowing how to think and reason. It's a true classical education and a true Christian education. Having said all that, the one con I can think of is that there isn't a lot of flexibility if your child works very far ahead of her grade level.
Absolutely wonderful teachers and great atmosphere. Many students though find that the time needed to make good grades very frequently take away much of their time from doing things they love to do.
Classical Christian education. Small class size, dedicated teachers and active parent participation make it our school of choice!
