You Could Pay Over $10,000

And Not Get An Education Equal To That Of

                 Carolina Christian Academy

 

Each year, Carolina Christian Academy administers the Stanford Achievement Test to each student in five-year-old kindergarten through twelfth grade.  Year after year, CCA’s students will outscore the nation by more than 40 percentile points and will average more than two grades ahead.  

 

CCA student annually average within the top ten percent of all school in the nation on the SAT-10. 

 

On hundred percent of our graduates will enroll in college.  Many receive scholarships, some full scholarships covering tuition, room and board, books, etc.

 

CCA remains vigilant in its vision and commitment to its mission:

 

 

The two fold mission of Carolina Christian Academy is to equip students with the knowledge, skills, values, and ethics to excel in life, especially in the areas of college, family, church, society and vocation; and to prepare an army of young Christian patriots who will exemplify, passionately advocate and intelligently defend the Biblical worldview, thereby solving our nation’s problems rather than adding to them.

 

 

Even though the Carolina Christian Academy surpasses schools charging $15,000 or more per student, CCA continues to hold the line on tuition costs and give multi-child discounts much greater than others.  We understand the sacrifice that a Christian education represents for many parents.  We keep tuition as low as possible.

 

Compare CCA’s rates and you will know what an incredible value you are getting.

Discounts:  On the 2nd and 3rd child, other schools give discounts ranging from 0% to 10% or 15%.  No school other than CCA gives a 15% and 20% discount on the 2nd and third child respectfully.

 

When you compare, you are amazed that at CCA you

get a superior, world-class education for day care rates. 

What a phenomenal bargain this is in Christian education.
