Christ Church School
Christ Church School (CCS) was planted as a mission/ outreach opportunity to our Christ Church of the Ascension neighbors in 2003. Since then, we’ve offered consistent, excellent, faith-based education for children ages 2-10 in Preschool through 4th Grade. Our teachers, staff, Chaplain, and Head of School are all dedicated to the enrichment and growth of children, for which we give thanks.
