Our children have thrived at CCS! They love going to school everyday and that makes a parents heart happy knowing they can drop their student off in a place they both enjoy and we know will guide them towards the truth of God's Word!

All three of our children have thrived academically, socially, and most important spiritually while attending Colonial Christian School. Wouldn’t want them anywhere else!

We have been so blessed to find this school! Our kids have grown and flourished in the small classroom environment. We appreciate the focus on growing as a Christian and the discipline of memorizing scripture verses. It's helped us as parents learn and do better as well! The teachers are kind and really care about our kids. This was a big change for them coming from a public school. Our fifth grader was making all F's in several of her clases. She needed a little bit extra attention that she just could not get at the public school. Now she is making all A's and we are so proud of her hard work. I'm emailed frequently about assignments and always know what is going on. Now we get to enjoy a spirit based and spirit filled Christmas program that is devoted to praising God. The guidance and education they are receiving is priceless!

At Colonial Christian School, faculty and staff partner with parents and the local church to disciple students academically so that they love truth and serve Christ in the local church. They were the top scoring evangelical K-12 Christian school inside the I-465 beltway for last Spring's Indiana I-LEARN (grades 3-8), beating out multiple schools that are 5-6 times their size. They were in the top 6% of all schools in Indiana, incredible for a school their size. Their dual credit offerings result in significant savings to families when their graduate goes off college. They also had a National Merit Scholar who transferred in 27 credit hours as a freshman this past summer. In addition to their academic successes, there is a wonderful spirit among the students as a result of teachers who are wonderful role models. All of this comes at an incredible value as CCS has comparatively low tuition, accepts vouchers, and has scholarships available.

We have several children studying here and each of them has flourished here. The sports orogram has challenged them. The music program has enriched them. The academics have taken them far beyond what they had experienced in other schools.

They have gone above and beyond what I ever expected from a school to help my son grow both spiritually and mentally.

My son has attended this wonderful school for 5 years. Since the first day of Kindergarten, I have never worried about him when I drop him off for school. Staff, teachers, students, they all support each other and care for one another. It is a safe and compassionate learning environment. Teachers are always available to discuss any issues with your child. It has been a joy to watch my son grow academically but most importantly spiritually. The school has served a large part in that growth. It certainly is a blessing to the community.

We've had our two at CCS 6 years (since they were school age). Excellent individual attention at the academic and spiritual level with continuous feedback. We love the ability to know the teachers in depth as well as the other classmates and their families. Colonial is helping us train, develop and point our children in the right direction and aiding us in sharpening them for future service at a very high level.

We are so blessed to have our children here at CCS! They are learning great Bible truth. My child who has a learning disability is also receiving the extra help she needs! Discipleship is truly what takes place here! We wouldn't have our children anywhere else!

I have three children who have had their education in the public school system, until with the help of vouchers they were able to begin attending CCS this year. I think one of the things I appreciate the most is that I believe that each of my children's teachers genuinely care about them and their success, and because of that there are open lines of communication between parent and teacher, something which did not exist in the public school.

My son is in pre-k at Colonial Christian. My husband and I are so thankful for this school. We heard about it by word of mouth and went to visit and immediately knew this school was a perfect fit for our family. The staff is so loving and kind. Everything we've experienced with the school and faculty is centered around Christ, which is important to us. I'm so thankful for Ms. Sharon, the preschool teacher, my son talks about her non stop. His class closes in prayer everyday. They take turns among the classmates as the prayer leader. They have a bible topic every week and it's usually centered around kindness and compassion. On top of learning bible lessons my son can now write his name. He has learned so much in such a short time. I recommend this school to anyone.

Having 2nd generation students at CCS, we continue to be thrilled with the high caliber academics, fine arts, and spiritual education our children receive. They are taught by experienced teachers who love God and love the students. We feel so blessed to call CCS our children's school!

Colonial Christian School is the best school in town. I wouldn't even consider sending our son to another. They hold a high standard, but are very easy to work with. The students excel in learning to be independent and responsible. Moral is very good. Students work well together. Faculty are very approachable. Dr Suitor is a very strong and capable leader. We love Colonial!

My son has attended Colonial Christian for two school years. It has helped his confidence and desire to learn tremendously. I don't see bullying or popularity an issue. Each child is treated equally and with respect. The teachers are very hands on and there to teach. We are a family and my child's best interest is always number one.

I have 3 children who are graduates of Colonial. Each received a solid education taught with a Biblical worldview. Each left Colonial with a strong foundation and each has excelled in college.

We are so glad that Colonial is there for our three kids. We were homeschooling and decided to send our two younger kids to regular school instead. The teachers were very helpful during that transition of our kids getting used to a regular school schedule. My oldest child went to public school first. The bullying and bad attitude of the students there was too much for him, so he came to Colonial. What a big difference for him. The students in his class were so friendly and helpful. There is no bullying at all at this school. Disrespect is not tolerated. Colonial provides a very safe and secure environment.

Our son has been attending Colonial Christian School since January 2011. He has grown exponentially during his time in the preschool and will be more than ready to start kindergarten in the fall. He is already reading some words and learning Bible stories. He is a better listener and continues to improve each week. We have been more than pleased with the program, teachers and staff at CCS.
