Contra Costa Christian Schools

When I was here, I was attending my Sophomore year of High school, and not that any thing was bad. I was with the yearbook group. The family lived in Piedmont at the time. CCCHS is a great school academically. I at times found this to be to much of a challenge for me, and I was also getting tired of the routine, getting up early, and getting home late afternoon.
With out a doubt, the best thing that happened to me here was, during a chapel service, I prayed a prayer and became a Christian. So, I guess one could say this school planted the seed for my spiritual education. I didn’t stay here all that long.
My Mom reached out to the school was I was a Senior at Piedmont, asking for a reccomendation for college, he suggested that we attend this Christian college fair, and we found that very helpful. Thank you CCCHS for planting the seed of salvation in me, of which I’m forever grateful!!! God Bless,
Peter

It’s a Christian school.

This past year I enrolled all 3 of my children in the school (ages Pre-​k, 2^nd and 5^th grade). One of the main contributing reasons was to have my children get outside of the public school system and into a Christ based school. The school is small which is fine. The class sizes range from 8 kids to 13 kids which is very nice for one on one attention from the teacher. My kids previous school had 33 kids in each class and they did not get enough attention (obviously). The school environment is very pleasant. The parents pray before class and allow the children to pray as well. They have Bible class weekly and Bible verse memorization. They also offer an after school program that allows me to keep all 3 kids in school until 6pm if needed for $ 5.50 per hour per child. Pre-​k class extends to 4 pm daily. The school provides elementary sports (basketball, flag football, baseball, etc) which is nice. We are very happy with our decision and the kids are all doing well. The staff knows all of the kids and is very pleasant and professional. I was concerned that my kids would not like the new school but they all love it very much.

Most parents experiences of difficulties at a school are based on not having enough information or doing their research which is why I want to share how pleased we are with the education of our children at CCCS. We have two boys who have attended since preschool and are now in 3^rd and 4^th grade. We appreciate the supportive culture of CCCS as well as the emotional care that is shared across the school community. With the introduction of a new Director this year, we have witnessed a desire to move away from a tradition if it is only based on «well, this is the way we have always done it». There is a new direction of logical reason in evaluating standards and whether it makes sense and is best for the kids. Everyday our children share their day and feelings of moving in the right direction with their studies, after school activities, athletics, music, art and relationships with classmates. We would like to see CCCS gain a gymnasium which is the only reason we cannot award 5 stars — having kids practice on the blacktop in winter is not ideal. However, the most important decision you can make for your children is how to invest in their future and education — we have never regretted the decision to have our children and family as members of the CCCS community.

My daughter came to this school in her sophomore year after attending public school her freshman year. What a difference! The quality of education the students receive, the classroom size, and the attentiveness of the staff is no comparison to a public school. The teachers are willing to go that extra step to work with the students in problem areas and make sure they succeed. You can tell they truly care about their students. The extra-​curricular activities offered also amazed me. There is something for everybody which is important in junior high and high school. CCCS is definitely a school you should check out.

I started in this school this year. I like this school because students and most of teachers are nice. However, they provide just a few classes, school teams and clubs. I wish they provide more classes and school activities! There are lots of christians in this school. It is nice.

This school has been a blessing to our family! We discovered the school when my daughter was entering fifth grade. We were both unhappy with the public school and looking for an alternative. I still remember the day we pulled up to the school. My daughter saw the sign… pre-​school to high school… and she said, «That’s it. I’m staying here until I graduate from high school.» So while we were talking to the principal about fifth grade I also asked about the high school (I plan ahead).
Here we are, years later, and I am the parent of a high school senior.
She loves the teachers at the school. They are trusted adults. She feels she can talk with them and ask for their advice. The teachers have a wide mix of backgrounds, so there are lots of points of views. This is so important as young adults start to pull away from the family and look for external role models. There is a feeling of trust between students and teachers. Parents are involved in the school.
You will feel as if you have an extended family at this school (especially important as a single mom… many willing hands during an emergency!).

My daughter has been attending Contra Costa Christian since Kindergarten. It has been a great experience for her; small class sizes, caring teachers, and a Christ-​centered education. Overall, we have been very pleased with this school.
