2012 Capital Campaign Kickoff Dinner
Updated May 7, 2012
Master of Ceremonies George McMillian shares with the audience how Clarksville Christian School students are able to learn from a Biblical worldview.
May 3, 2012 was truly a special night for Clarksville Christian School! CCS held a dinner at the Clarksville Country Club to kick off a second capital building campaign entitled "Something Special". The first capital building campaign from 2009-2012 was a huge success, resulting in the completion of phase one of the current campus.
The current campaign will allow CCS to continue to grow by adding several new classrooms, biology and chemistry labs, a cafeteria, and a multi-purpose gymnasium with a stage.
The highlight of the evening was an announcement by campaign chairman Ronnie Moore. At the conclusion of the dinner, he shared that $593,000 was pledged by those in attendance that evening. CCS is well on its way to the base goal of $750,000, and the eventual challenge goal of $900,000. This will enable CCS to serve more children in the community by providing more space and resources. We hope you will choose to be part of this exciting time in the life of Clarksville Christian School. To read more about our "Something Special" campaign, please click here.

Accreditation Team Visits CCS
Updated November 30, 2011
From the inception of Clarksville Christian School, the desire has been for CCS to strive for excellence. CCS became a member of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) in the summer of 2007 and has worked toward the goal of becoming accredited over the last four years. ACSI now has a partnership with AdvancED (formerly Southern Association of Colleges and Schools).
A program spends three years fully developing every aspect of school operation. A minimum of one year is required for a rigorous self-study process. Following the self-study, a team of educators from ACSI visits the school and issues a recommendation to the commission. The ACSI accreditation team visited CCS the week before Thanksgiving, and with the Lordís blessing, our accreditation status should be received by June, 2012. If the visiting accreditation team is able to finalize and submit their report before the commission meets in December, there is a possibility CCS will know by January 2012. In the meantime, CCS has submitted an application to AdvancED for dual accreditation. CCS will be accredited by ACSI and AdvancED soon.
Children, students, and families are looking for high-quality education. A schoolís involvement in the accreditation process raises the school's commitment to quality through this intentional investment. Please continue to keep CCS and this accreditation process in your prayers.
