Curriculum Overview
CTCA functions as an extension of the Christian home by supporting families who seek to obey the Biblical instruction that gives them ultimate responsibility for the nurture and education of their children (Deuteronomy 6:7,8). Because the Christian approach to learning differs significantly from the secular viewpoint, CTCA offers a curriculum rooted in a God-centered view of life. This view holds that God’s truth is the standard by which all other truth is measured. The curriculum, taught by a qualified Christian faculty, gives parents/guardians the opportunity to provide their children with academic instruction consistent with the Christ-centered teaching they receive at home and at church.
