About Our Academics

The academic programs at Cornerstone Christian School are designed to ultimately prepare graduates for admission into the college and/or university of their choice.
 
Expected School wide Learning Results (ESLRs) are our measure of excellence.
 
These school wide learning outcomes cross all areas of the curriculum and grade levels, supporting the CCS mission to prepare students to deal with the issues and realities of life by developing their spiritual, academic, social and physical potential. At each level of the K-12 program, students explore, collaborate and reflect on the subjects specific to their academic needs and requirements. The curriculum is rigorous, supportive and appropriately interactive. All students have access to technology tools to enhance their academic experience. From the kindergarten classroom to the honors Calculus classroom, strong, well-prepared and caring teachers work with the students, providing support and help as needed.
