Students will report to classroom from carpool no earlier than 7:30 a.m. or at their assigned drop-off time. For the safety of all, parents are not permitted to park their vehicle and walk their child(ren) onto campus.

Carpool tags are mandatory and will be assigned to all families.

The school’s dress code is designed to a) promote the decorum and dignity of our academic mission, b) promote unity of purpose within the student body and c) support biblical principles of modesty and distinction of genders. Supporting the school and coming to school each day with clothing in compliance with the dress code is the responsibility of both the student and the parent. Dress code violations will be recorded and repeated violations will result in appropriate disciplinary action.

Service Hours Requirement

One goal of CCS is to help develop godly individuals who are usable for God's service in His church and in the world. All students are encouraged to develop Christ-like character as they practice serving those around them. 

Secondary students have a community service requirement that is part of Bible class. Although students are always encouraged to nurture the habit and heart of service, middle and high school students will NOT be required to turn in their service hours for the Fall 2020 semester. 

Note that high school students can continue to track service hours in FACTS for recognition for completion of 200+ hours at graduation. We pray that students will look for opportunities to serve during this unique time in our city and communities.
