Completed Application
The Chattanooga Christian School admissions process begins when a parent or guardian fills out the online application, which must be completed electronically. A separate application is required for each student applying.
You can complete the application in our prospective parent portal. A one-time, nonrefundable application fee of $100 is required. -
Recommendations
1. Pastor Recommendation: As a covenantal Christian school, CCS partners with families who share our faith foundation. At least one parent must be a professing Christian who is actively involved in a local church.
As part of the application process, a Pastor Recommendation form is required. This form will be automatically sent to the pastor you list on your checklist, based on the church your family regularly attends.
2. Teacher Recommendation: A teacher's recommendation is required for all PreSchool-12th grade applicants. This should come from your student's academic teacher from the current school year. The Teacher Recommendation form will be available in your parent portal. -
Transcripts & Student Records
- Grades and test scores for the last three (3) years
- Exceptional Education records, if applicable (IEP, 504 plans, diagnostic evaluations, etc.)
- Additional records, as needed (i.e., discipline records, eligibility report)

Core Distinctives Seminar
Parents are required to attend a virtual Core Distinctives Seminar, held via Google Meet, with Head of School Matt Covey. During this online meeting, he will review the Core Distinctives of Chattanooga Christian School. Once your Pastor's Recommendation has been received, you will be able to schedule your seminar through your Parent Portal. -
Student Placement Assessment
All 6th-12th grade applicants will complete an academic assessment to help determine appropriate placement in either honors or regular classes. This is not an entrance exam. You can sign up for an assessment time in the Parent Portal.
