I went to CCA from pre-k to 8th grade then for high school, I got homeschooled. I do miss that school almost everyday but it might just be because of my friends and not the actual school, teachers, or academic experiences…the curriculum they use (Abeka) is so easy I didn’t even really have to look at the teacher’s clearly visible and obvious notes for us to right down. All I had to do was take my own notes out of the books and study right before tests and quizzes and I would ace them. Teachers aren’t the best there. I would say maybe 1 or 2 actually care about you but others would rather tell stories about their life or critique everything about you. The only safety the school has is first aid kits and a locked door. One kid slammed his head open on the bleachers and the teacher only put ice on it (since they don’t have an actual nurse). There is a lot of cliques and not a lot of diversity (sports or just color in general). I do love the school though and would go back 8/10% so it’s really a personal preference. And the people there are very good on their biblical beliefs and standards but their dress code could be a little less strict…I do attend one class at the school still so that I can play sports. (They allow homeschoolers to play sports for them but they have to take at least one class, I recommend choir)

The teachers cared about you as an individual, and helped you become a better person. You could tell they loved the Lord.

I would give it zero out of five stars if I could.

Absolutely phenomenal. Since I graduated nearly 10 years ago I have stayed in close association with the many of the faculty and some of the students. The teachers enjoy working there. They view it as a ministry and not a job. Any student who desires to be a part of an orderly, Godly environment will enjoy their time at Central. My high school degree from CCA enabled me to get into a good college and gave me a good foundation for life.

Wonderful school, excellent teachers, great Christian environment for students, families and faculty. My oldest graduated from CCA in 2009, my youngest started in K-4 and has been a student for ten years and is currently entering the 9th grade. Low cost tuition at about $4800. per year discounts are available to families enrolling more than one student.

I would not recommend this school. I appreciate their efforts to "train up children in the way they should go" but I feel like that is often completely lost among the minutiae of daily procedures there.

It's a really, really great school and curriculum. The pastor and others are great as well.

my daughter has attended to CCA since she was 3 years old and now 3rd grader. Education included God at school is great! She needs that because the public schools removes God, Bible, disciplines, and more. I can't imagine to place her in public school. I pray she will remain there until she graduates in high school if my financial is permitted.

Fantastic God fearing role models. Academics are spot on. Would not send my children anywhere else. May God continue to bless them.

My son currently attends CCA and I am so pleased with the teachers, principal and education. The curriculum exceeds my expectations. Very safe and caring atmosphere. I recommend this school to anyone.

My child went there from K to 2nd grade and being a single parent couldn't swing it financially. We both miss it dearly. Public school has been what I'd expected, so I'm praying to get her back there. The principal is a wonderful man!

I was a student there during my Junior and Senior year, 2010-2011. I found that there were many, exceedingly strict rules, so many that it was difficult to remember and follow them all. The principal there seemed very proud and self righteous, and I felt like the parents were not privy to some of the things that actually went on, unless the students told them. The other teachers were not bad, and I enjoyed my experience with them. But, as long as the current principal is there, I would not recommend it.

Central has been great to me; I mean yes, there is drama, some bad teachers, and some great teachers but that's just a part of life and its how you deal with the problems. I've been a student at CCA for about 9 years and I thank-you so much for everything that the school and staff has taught me. I appreciate having a great opportunity to learn about the Lord and what his will is for my life.. Even if you leave Central; no matter how much you disliked it; you will miss being in that small environment and getting to know the other side of people much easier than being in a huge school. Central has been fantastical to me, it made me who I am going to become and I thank the Lord, truly!

A wonderful truly Christian school. Both my children graduated from there. Now my daughter is on staff there. True ministry of a great local Baptist church. Has had the same pastor for over 36 tears. Dedicated to Bible teaching in education and character building. Staff is very hard working and sacrifice daily for the students and parents.

We are very happy with the excellent education the school offers and most important, the Christ centered atmosphere thru everything they teach and do. My son loves the classes and the caring teachers. Now my daughter will be going next year when she enters 1st grade. Looking forward to have both kids there.
