School Standards

Academic – Applicants will interview with an appropriate member of the administration. A determination will be made concerning the student’s likelihood of success in the CCCS program. Testing will be scheduled if it is determined to be necessary or helpful in deciding on acceptance or placement. 

Conduct –  Older students will be expected to sign a code of conduct involving abstinence from all forms of tobacco, alcohol, drugs, and immoral sexual behavior. CCCS students are expected to be exemplary, respectful, patriotic, and submissive. Any previous discipline problems or conduct concerns should be disclosed and will be discussed during the interview. 

Spiritual- Applicants and at least one parent are expected to believe in and support our mission, philosophy, and statement of faith and be actively involved in their local churches.

If one or both parents have no regular contact with the student and no input into decisions concerning his/her care, then the responsible parent, grandparent(s), or guardian(s) should attend the interview with an appropriate member of the Crescent City administration. The school office will make notification of your child’s status by mail no later than one week (7 working days) after the interview. In order to allow time for prayerful consideration of all factors, decisions are not rendered at the time of the interview. Upon acceptance, registration and additional fees will be required.

Review – All new students will be reviewed generally but not formally, after the first complete grading period, to help ensure their acclimation to and success at CCCS.
