Christ Classical Academy desires to embody a spirit of excellence in all we do. It is important that we align ourselves with trusted classical, Christian education organizations. With this in mind, CCA is excited to publicly announce we are pursuing accreditation with SCL (Society for Classical Learning). SCL has existed since the mid-1990s and is a well-respected voice and forum for professionals and schools committed to classical, Christian education.

The National Archives has over 15 billion pieces of paper and parchment. Of the 15 billion, over 80 percent are written in cursive handwriting. One compelling argument for teaching cursive is that our nation’s foundational documents are written in cursive, and future generations need to be able to read those documents that have formed and guided our country. Beyond the example above, there are other advantages to being proficient in cursive writing.

“Christ has no body but Yours, no hands, no feet on earth but yours, Yours are the eyes with which He looks compassion on this world, Yours are the feet with which He walks to do good, Yours are the hands with which He blesses all the world.”—St. Teresa
Our second annual CCA book fair recently wrapped up, and it was a resounding success!
All credit goes to our wonderful CCA families who supported the book fair by purchasing books that are curated for their wholesome content by the I-55 Book Fair Company.
Christ Classical Academy is celebrating a milestone anniversary this school year–our 30th! CCA’s history speaks to God’s faithfulness. In the fall of 1995, First Presbyterian Christian School (now Christ Classical Academy) opened its doors with three teachers and twenty-four students in kindergarten through 5th grades.
Christ Classical Academy is committed to providing a high-quality education using methods and curriculum that challenge our students by teaching them how to think, how to communicate, and how to persuade.
Christ Classical Academy stands alone as our area’s only private classical, Christian school. For this reason, we place a high value on hiring men and women who are called to work and serve at CCA.
The 2025-2026 school year was filled with celebrations of the Christ Classical Academy graduating class of 2026! As CCA’s second graduating class since launching a high school in 2020, this group of pioneers was tasked with establishing traditions for our oldest students. They did a wonderful job establishing a path to be followed by future CCA senior classes!
We have some exciting news to announce regarding Christ Classical Academy’s organizational structure for the 2025-2026 school year. CCA has experienced much growth and change since Kim Mullins and Sarah Medlin stepped into leadership at CCA in the fall of 2017.
