Elementary STEM
Cypress Christian School students have opportunities K-12 to explore STEM programs. Critical thinking and problem-solving weave throughout all subjects and are then given an outlet to practice these skills in STEM classes and electives. The K-12 STEM programs give our students exposure and chances to excel in many areas.
Project Lead The Way (PLTW)
PLTW is being implemented in transitional kindergarten (TK) classes through fifth grade in the computer and science STEM labs. Each PLTW Launch module engages students in cross-disciplinary activities that spark a lifelong love of learning and builds knowledge and skills in areas including computer science, engineering and biomedical science. In addition, each module empowers students to develop essential skills such as problem-solving, critical and creative thinking, communication, collaboration and perseverance. PLTW modules are easily adapted to point to God’s truth through creation, unity in the body of Christ, and God’s design of the human brain.
Computer/STEM lab
Students will recognize that computers reflect God’s precise and orderly design. They will understand man’s knowledge to create the computer comes from God and is His gift to us. All elementary students from transitional kindergarten (TK) classes through fifth grade participate in weekly classes in the computer/STEM lab. Our younger students are introduced to typing with correct finger placement and basic coding using Bee Bots. First and second grades are introduced to coding and use their imaginations to create animated stories and games using Scratch. Third through fifth grades are introduced to 3D printing using various CAD (Computer-aided Design) applications like Tinkercad and Cookiecad. Fourth and fifth grades begin to create, code and work with robotics using VEX IQ Robot Design kits. Before leaving elementary, all students will work towards mastery of basic Microsoft Office software and the Schoology LMS (Learning Management System).
Science/STEM lab
“The more I study nature, the more amazed I am at the work of the Creator. Science brings men nearer to God.” ~Louis Pasteur
In the elementary science and STEM Lab, we strive to incorporate science, technology, engineering and math at age-appropriate levels through exploration and investigation of physical, life, earth and space sciences. All students in grades TK-5 learn to develop and design investigations which will yield wonder and answers to God’s creation of the roles of plants and animals in our physical world, as well as, explore and investigate physical characteristics of objects as they test and model forces. Students will not only examine and test scientific processes in the lab; they will also examine the world around them outdoors with God’s creation.

Elementary Curriculum
Cypress Christian School elementary creates a beginning framework for providing our students vast opportunities to meet our mission statement of academic excellence and a biblical worldview.
Academic Excellence
CCS provides standards-based instruction in science, mathematics, social studies, reading and language arts (writing, grammar, spelling and handwriting). We strive to support a partnership with each individual family that focuses on equipping elementary students with the necessary foundational skills to be well prepared for their academic road ahead provided by the best coursework and a challenging environment.
Teachers use cutting-edge curriculum along with other research-based tools to ensure that students are mastering grade-level standards and learning critical thinking skills all within a biblical perspective.
Each student will leave our elementary school well prepared for middle school with qualities of confident learners, responsible students and the understanding that we are “fearfully and wonderfully made”.
Biblical Worldview
At CCS, we look at each individual subject as an opportunity to draw students closer to the Lord. Not only do we provide Bible as a core subject, but we also provide opportunities to learn and memorize Scripture as a model of hiding God’s Word in our heart. In addition, through chapel every Wednesday and our classroom teachers, we provide daily moments of worship, prayer and fostering a knowledge of God’s love for every student.
Middle School Co-Curriculars
Academics
Middle School Co-Curriculars
The curriculum and programs offered at Cypress Christian School are designed to fulfill the mission of the school by 'honoring the Lord Jesus Christ by providing students an education based upon academic excellence and biblical values."
CCS fulfills this mission by offering many opportunities for students to learn both inside and outside of the classroom. We believe when students participate in training, competition or performance individually or as members of a team or group – under the mentorship of Christian coaches and directors – they are practicing what they have learned in the classroom, chapels, church and at home. These opportunities help prepare them for a life of serving and honoring Jesus Christ.
Cheer (girls), Cross Country, Football (boys), Volleyball (girls)

AP Capstone School
The College Board AP Capstone Diploma Program Focuses on College-Level Independent Research, Collaborative Teamwork and Communication and Writing Skills Crucial for College and Career Success
CCS is one of approximately 1,500 high schools worldwide to implement the AP Capstone Program ― an innovative program that allows students to develop skills that matter most for college success, such as research, collaboration and communication. Developed in direct response to feedback from higher education faculty and college admission officers, AP Capstone complements the in-depth, subject-specific study of other Advanced Placement courses and exams. The program consists of two courses taken in sequence: AP Seminar and AP Research.
Under the instruction of Mr. Patrick Leonard, Cypress Christian School started AP Seminar in the fall of 2018.
This innovative program provides an even greater opportunity for our students to prepare for college and beyond. The program gives our teachers more flexibility with curriculum choices so their students can access more challenging coursework and sharpen their reading and writing skills.
The AP Seminar course, typically taken in 11th grade, equips students to look at real-world issues from multiple perspectives. Through a variety of materials, articles to research studies to foundational and philosophical texts, students tackle complex questions; understand and evaluate opposing viewpoints; interpret and synthesize information; and construct, communicate and defend evidence-based arguments. Students are assessed through a team project and presentation, an individual project and presentation and an end-of-course written exam.

Students are assessed through a team project and presentation, an individual project and presentation and an end-of-course written exam.
In the subsequent AP Research course, students design, plan and conduct a yearlong research-based investigation on a topic of individual interest, documenting their process with a portfolio. Students build on skills developed in the AP Seminar course by learning how to understand research methodology; employ ethical research practices; and collect, analyze and synthesize information to build, present and defend an argument.
“ We’re proud to offer AP Capstone, which enables students and teachers to focus on topics of their choice in great depth,” said Trevor Packer, senior vice president for AP and Instruction at the College Board. He adds, “This provides terrific opportunities for students to develop the ability to write and present their work effectively, individually and in groups—the very skills college professors want their students to possess. ”

High School STEM
Cypress Christian School students have opportunities K-12 to explore STEM programs. Critical thinking and problem-solving weave throughout all subjects and are then given an outlet to practice these skills in STEM classes and electives. The K-12 STEM programs give our students exposure and chances to excel in many areas.
Cypress Christian School students are challenged daily in their core classes and electives. The base curriculum enhances the student’s exposure to STEM in core classes that every student takes such as Algebra I, Algebra II, geometry, pre-calculus, biology and more. In addition to the core classes, students have opportunities to take their desires and passions to the next level with STEM electives in mathematics, science, engineering and computer science.
Senior Capstone Engineering Elective
The senior capstone engineering class (formerly referred to as honors engineering) has a unique opportunity to impact the world in Jesus’ name by providing a product that improves the life of a client at Reach Unlimited. Reach Unlimited is a nonprofit organization that serves individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They believe that individuals with disabilities deserve to live a life full of joy, purpose, and accomplishment in a safe and caring environment.
The honors engineering class of 2021-2022 presented their projects to their clients from Reach Unlimited at a banquet on April 11, 2022. The semester began with the students visiting Reach Unlimited to meet their clients and understand a need they have in their community. The students worked through the design process and project management skills to present a product that would fulfill three needs.
Group one was tasked to create a fully automated stamp machine. Reach Unlimited has a gift shop that uses gift bags with stickers of their logo when customers buy items. The stamp of the logo would be used on the bags in place of the sticker and allow their client to help with the process even with her limited mobility. The students decided to use programming and an actuator inside of a metal plated wood frame. The client can simply hit a button and the machine will vertically stamp the gift bags one at a time.
Group two was tasked to create a headpiece for a client to be able to participate in art activities at Reach Unlimited. The headpiece incorporated a 3D-printed piece that connected the inside of a hard hat safety helmet with an art utensil such as a marker or paint brush. The group also created a mobile stand specifically designed for their clients’ wheelchair. The stand rolls up to the client and can adjust in height as well as hold different types of art paper or canvas on a white board.
Group three was tasked to create a soil sifter machine for a client who otherwise would not be able to help in the greenhouse. Large shovels are used to mix soil with perlite. The new product allows the client with limitations in his hands to poor smaller amounts of soil while the machine vibrates from an electric sander. The machine then has a motor that rotates PVC pipe to mix the soil and perlite before being used in the greenhouse.
“Last semester, we had so much exposure to engineering and what a first-year engineering class in college might look like. This semester, the students have used that knowledge combined with skills, desires and determination to be the hands and feet of Jesus.”
– Mrs. Yaw

High School Co-Curriculars
Cypress Christian School offers a wide variety of co-curricular opportunities for high school students.
Football, Volleyball, Cross Country, Cheerleading, Dance
Cypress Christian School’s theatre arts program is more than just a co-curricular activity; it is a family of creators constantly striving to glorify God with their talents. Students enrolled in the drama program get hands on experience and dedicated stage time for every skill level. Students can expect to be challenged and supported by their peers both on and off the stage with the help and guidance of their directors. With a vertically aligned course selection of introduction to theatre arts, intermediate theatre arts, advanced theatre arts and technical theatre exploration and design, there is something for everyone in this award-winning program.
The end goal for theatre arts students is to grow their talents throughout their high school career and compete as a team in the TAPPS One Act Play competition in the fall and individually in the TAPPS Speech and Academic Meet in the spring of every year.
The Cypress Christian School Chamber Choir is a choral ensemble made up of high school students. Music is a gift directly from God, and the voice is an instrument that is entirely God-made. Students in Chamber Choir learn to use each of their own uniquely crafted voices in harmony with others to become one voice. In Chamber Choir, students will experience and perform various styles of high-level choral music, from classical to musical theater to gospel, by harmonizing in three to eight parts. Chamber choir performs at school-wide performances throughout the year and competes in Solo & Ensemble TAPPS competition as well as Large Ensemble TAPPS competition in the spring. Students learn to worship through song, and by joining others in participating in this God-given musical language, choir members become a close-knit team, unified in purpose, experiencing the joy of the Lord together.

Middle school is a pivotal time for young teenagers. The values, beliefs, habits and skills honed between the ages of 11-14 follow the young man or woman into high school and beyond.
Middle school students are fragile. They are full of expectations, yet they face many risks. What difference should it make that young preteens and teens are part of an educational community that strives to follow the biblical model and promotes a Christian worldview? The team of middle school teachers at CCS is committed to making a difference in the lives of these precious students. We want to help them to answer the question, “What does it mean to live for Jesus?”.

High school is not just about the four years of classes taken or "getting into a good college" as so many people say.
In the classroom, students will be academically challenged by experts in their field. Our teachers focus on much more than just memorizing facts and figures. They guide students in learning how to reflect, analyze and discover the why so they will be prepared for college. One hundred percent of our students are accepted to college. Because of this, we take all of our freshman to four different colleges to tour and start the discovery process of finding the college that may be the right fit for them.

On October 26, 2019, Future Warriors and their families gathered on the playground for our FRIENDSgiving event. It ended up being a crisp, sunny day which was the perfect atmosphere for fellowship and a scavenger hunt throughout campus.
The kids were given clues which led them to the prayer garden, picnic tables, softball field and playground. Once they located the pumpkins at all four stops and filled their cards with stickers at each location, the Future Warriors returned to the starting point to fill jars with assorted candies to take home. A great time of fun and fellowship was had by all. New friendships were formed and old ones were kindled, which is the goal of the Future Warriors Club. Our desire is to promote activities that will help ease the transition to kindergarten when it’s time for these Future Warriors to join the ranks of CCS.

Reflecting Christ
Student Life
Reflecting Christ
Education at Cypress Christian School is approached from a biblical perspective that recognizes the sovereignty and authority of God.
These beliefs are a part of every aspect of the education offered at Cypress Christian School.
#1
God is transcendent, is spirit, and always acts in accordance with His loving and just nature. In addition, God in His Word places an eternal emphasis upon life. (Romans 11:36, II Corinthians 4:18, I John 2:15-17)
#2
Men, and thus children, are created in the image of God and have unbounded potential to mirror the qualities and character of Jesus Christ. Further, man is born with a sin nature that has marred but not ruined God’s image in man. Finally, we believe that man’s greatest need is redemption through Jesus Christ and not education. (Genesis 1:27, Psalm 8:3-6, Romans 3:23, Jeremiah 17:9)
#3
Jesus Christ reflects truth: truth about the nature of God, truth of man’s need to be rightly related to God, and truth about the world He created. (John 14:6, John 17:7, Matthew 7:24-27, Psalm 19:1, I Corinthians 2:15, John 8:26, II Timothy 3:16)
#4
The Bible is inerrant and authoritative. Because God both created the universe and appointed the writing of Scripture, no academic truth (man discovered truth) can rightly be in conflict with God’s Word.
#5
Although man may not perceive truth in particular circumstances, truth is unchangeable and not relativistic.
#6
Biblical education focuses on what a person becomes rather than on what he knows. Therefore, knowledge is the basis for the development of wisdom and character. Further, the end of education is not the acquisition of status but to glorify God and fulfill His mandate to subdue and have dominion over God’s creation.
#7
Education is the prerogative and responsibility of parents. The Christian school is in partnership with the home to provide support and assistance in shaping a Christ-like view of truth and reality.
Student Life
Creating a Cultural Impact
Life as a Cypress Christian School Warrior reaches beyond the classroom.
Through a wide range of activities during and after school hours, the goal is to create a cultural impact in the community as well as in our students’ lives. This encourages a sense of community within the student body.
This is done through school-wide events that allow interaction between elementary and secondary students, leadership and service opportunities through National Junior Honor Society, National Honor Society and Ambassador Council and community service. It’s good (and fun) to be a Warrior!

CCS utilizes FACTS Grant & Aid to streamline the financial aid assessment process. Families submit an application and supporting documents through a secure portal, and FACTS makes recommendations to CCS based on data collected. In addition to FACTS’ recommendations, each family’s financial and personal situation is considered. In some cases, a home visit is required as part of the tuition assistance application process.
Tuition assistance is awarded annually to assist with tuition payments but is not used to cover application/enrollment fees, student fees, optional program costs or other fees. Assistance monies are awarded in a prorated method throughout the school year but are not applied retroactively.

Welcome from President, Dr. Jeffrey Potts
The power of a cooperative effort between home, school and the church is second to none for the purpose of providing a strong foundation for young lives. At CCS, our students are taught by teachers committed to academic excellence and to the Christian faith.
As you learn more about Cypress Christian School, you will see several unique things about our school.

- Second, our desire for academic excellence for all students. We offer a comprehensive academic program so that we can provide excellence in education to all our students according to their God-given talents and abilities.
- Third, our dedication to fine arts and athletics. With our outstanding athletic facilities and broad fine arts programs, CCS can afford young people the opportunity to excel in their unique areas of gifts and abilities.
- Fourth, our commitment to the principles of God’s Word. This commitment is demonstrated through the integration of biblical principles throughout our entire curriculum and in our earnest prayers that God would open hearts to understand His truth. This is what it means to have a Christian worldview. We want our students to learn not only how to make a living, but to learn how to live in a way that has meaning, purpose and honor.
Please feel free to review issues of the CONNECTION Magazine which demonstrates ways that God is using CCS to impact young lives through an education based upon academic excellence and biblical values.
