Jordyn, 5th grade
Jordyn enrolled in Spruce Hill/
CCA as a 3rd grader. “At my
other school,” Jordyn confides,
“we didn’t have reading classes.”
Our reading program posed a challenge for Jordyn
at first, but she found encouragement and support in
her teachers. “Ms. Gallagher would sit with me during
recess and help me with my homework. She helped
me discover my love for reading. You should see my
bookshelf at home—there are no empty spaces!” Jordyn
is now thriving in 5th grade and was recently honored
with an Academic Achievement award. n

me, laughs with me and shares with me. She reminds me
I am loved.” Monorear serves as a Student Ambassador,

100% of our high school graduates are accepted to a college of their choice.
Our students’ SAT scores are higher than all local charter schools and rank
among the best magnet schools in the area. Our rigorous curriculum prepares
students to thrive at college, at work and in life.
Our diverse electives allow students to explore their interests and discover
new talents. Students in our Art of Food elective learn culinary secrets from
professional chefs, while students in our Wilderness Survival elective learn
how to rough it in the wild on a weekend retreat. What are you interested in?
Our Christian faith determines more than what we teach; it impacts how we
live. At Spruce Hill/CCA, we cultivate a culture of grace, where students are
loved and respected. Our small class sizes allow teachers to invest one-on-one
time with each student. Faculty and staff build meaningful relationships with
our students, both in and out of the classroom.
