College Prep

In addition to our core courses, students have the opportunity to participate in College prep and Honors Curriculum. The College and Career Office will work with every student to ensure they take advantage of every opportunity for maximum success. Our curriculum is designed to meet the most unique and rigorous college admissions requirements, so every student can pursue a college admission that best fits their goals. We also help support our students for academic success throughout their high school career.

The higher grades of the secondary school build upon the sound spiritual and academic foundations that were developed during the elementary and early secondary school years. The instructional program is amplified through practical opportunities for the development of leadership, service, special interests, and academic enrichment through student organizations and sports teams. We are proud of the academic achievements of our students, and the 100% college acceptance rate and above-average scholarship earnings each graduating class has maintained.

Oh, The Places We Go

Each year, we host a number of college representatives on our campus. 9th through 12th grade students have the opportunity to meet with representatives, attend presentations, learn about the college admissions process, and browse a variety of schools. Our favorite thing is to discover that a CPCS grad is thoroughly enjoying the school of their choice, making friends, pursuing academic and co-curricular interests, and learning more about themselves every day.

“…you have brains in your head, you have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who will decide where to go…”

– Dr. Seuss, Oh! The Places You’ll Go!
