History of CCA

In January 2010, several families joined together to pray for God's will concerning the establishment of a Christian school in Abingdon. They sought to establish a school that would be academically rigorous yet biblically sound.

The mission of Cornerstone Christian Academy (CCA) is to prepare children to go into the world and make a difference.  We believe that in order to fulfill God's calling on their lives, CCA students need to be prepared to think creatively, reason logically and write persuasively.

To this end the board of CCA adopted a classical methodology for teaching.  Classical instruction matches the way students learn at each developmental stage. The great thinkers, scientists, and leaders of the 10th-19th centuries were trained using classical methods and these methods still have value for this generation of learners.

Cornerstone Christian Academy was incorporated  in 2010 and obtained non-proft 501(c)(3) status.  A board of directors was selected to establish a school of excellence that will provide Biblical and academic training for children.

It is exciting to see what God is doing in Abingdon.  We hope you will consider giving your child the gift of a classical and Christ-centered education.

We will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord
— Psalm 78:4
