What makes you a Christian school? How are you different from a public school?
Calgary Christian is an Alternative Public School, which means that everything at CCS is taught through a Christian perspective and by Christian educators. A biblical foundation exists in all we do. School days not only start with prayer and time for devotions, but every subject and topical discussion is infused with our Christian world-and-life view. CCS also applies the biblical “through –lines” found in the Teaching for Transformation curriculum provided by the Prairie Centre for Christian Education (PCCE). Bible classes are taught specifically in the Elementary and Middle, while High School students explore faith in action through Religious Ethics, World Religions, chapels, activity involvement, individual and group projects. Together, CCS, home, and church work together to provide a foundation for students to believe, learn and grow.
What are your fees?
The Christian Education Fee Schedule for the 2024/25 school year can be found here. Each May, the new schedule is presented at the Spring Society Meeting.
