Community Christian School is a vibrant learning community that provides an authentic Christian education for students in PreK-8th Grade. Our school was established in 1920 with the desire to provide quality Christian education to the community.
Our accredited academic programs offer a vast curriculum of carefully prepared learning materials and experiences in inclusive multi-grade classrooms. A multi-grade classroom can offer benefits not easily replicated in a single-grade classroom. Other countries around the world, some with the highest literacy rates (and PISA scores), like New Zealand, Australia, Austria, England, Finland, and France, utilize multi-grade classrooms in both primary and secondary schools.
Certified teachers instruct, observe, and guide students toward meaningful hands-on activities to spark their intellectual curiosity with a Biblical worldview and instill a lifelong love of learning.
Our Early Achievers classroom provides full-day PreK and Kindergarten education for children aged 4 - 5.
In a prepared environment of specifically designed materials, children learn through curiosity, exploration, and discovery. Our students benefit from a teacher-to-child ratio of 1:8 within the classroom.
All students participate in music, American Sign Language, and physical education class.
Full-day PreK and Kindergarten: Monday - Thursday from 7:55 a.m. - 3:20 p.m, and Friday from 7:55 a.m. - 12:20 p.m.
Practical Life exercises guide children to fulfill their own needs, such as care for themselves, the environment, and concern for others. Lessons in pouring, sweeping, dishwashing, and snack preparation give children pride and allow them to take ownership of their classroom and ultimately their own learning.
Through the use of manipulative materials and exercises, activities that appeal to and refine the senses. Children gain the ability to categorize and organize by learning about size, shape, texture, composition, temperature, weight, and volume.
Designed to engage the child’s senses, our Language Program begins with phonetic sound recognition and continues through a specific progression of lessons in reading and writing.
In Mathematics, the children explore addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication through the use of concrete materials that they can touch and manipulate.
Cultural Studies in geography, history, music, art, physical science, and biology are conducted through lessons such as globes, puzzle maps, simple experiments, artist studies, and animal nomenclatures. In the spirit of inspiring peace in the world, these cultural activities help children respect differences by showing the basic similarities of human beings and other living things.
