I wish I had never sent my child here. Some of the teachers are actually really quite lovely, caring, and good educators, but that's about the only positive I can say. The Christian values lack horribly, the bullying was appalling, this including teacher's children. My child still suffers from the ongoing gossip at CCA and they no longer attend the school! They need to desperately get a strong Christian Leader in that will have a no tolerance policy for bullies and teach the children what it means to truly live for Christ. The education is sub-par, not really preparing the students for potentially attending college. We were considering pulling our child out for that reason and the lack of extracurriculars, but then horrendous bullying came to light and we left for safety reasons. As it stands, nepotism and lack of solid leadership make this an unsafe learning environment.

Corning Christian Academy was a blessing to my family and it prepared my children well. As a small school that cannot provide all of the same things that the public schools provide, they do so much with what they have and it is effective. The intangible gifts far outweighed the things that are lacking. The teachers build relationships with the students that are meaningful, encourage learning, and develop character. We have often said that they have helped raise our children and we are thankful that we could trust them with what they were teaching them, not just academically but spiritually as well. My children were able to attend the colleges of their choice and were academically and emotionally ready for what they faced. We have seen the school continue to improve their staffing, their curriculum, and their outreach into the community, and we are grateful for the impact it has had on us.

It is with out a doubt the best school I have ever been involved with. All the staff take pride in the students and the students family. Im blessed we brought our 2 daughters there for all these years

We love CCA and feel this is the absolute best place for our children to gain the knowledge needed to excel in their futures!

I have been to differnet schools beside CCA, and I can tell you that the school does not prepare you at all for important tests or college. There is a strong sense of favoritism between teachers and students that is not fair to others. There are many nice students and some teachers, but the education is subpar and not challenging enough to feel like you're learning things. I failed multiple state tests because there was no review for classes. Again, the school is nice with a good student body, but there could be adjustments to make it better.

Terrible, I would not recommend this school at all. I gave it 2 stars purely because some of the staff were quite good. The education is substandard and outdated textbooks were frequently used.

Overall we have had mixed experiences. We have had some great teachers. We loved the small class sizes, and the friendships that children have developed. But the educational component is very much lacking in both rigor and relevance. They rely heavily on worksheets for classroom instruction.

I expected a "Christian" school where my child could not only get a great education but grow in the Lord and make life lasting friends. Unfortuantely this school has shown us that just because it "quacks like a duck and looks like a duck it sure AIN'T a duck". Inconsistent, little to no discipline (especially when it comes to bullying), clicky,lack of communication with administration and teachers. Curriculium is outdated as are some of the teachers. A major waste of over $4,000.

The only Union that CCA teachers need/want is the one with God... My children have been blessed in countless ways. This is worth a fortune!
