Academics
Exceptional Education
Our intent is to serve whole families who would have all of their children attend CCS, regardless of their academic capabilities.
Supporting Students
Exceptional Education support is available in both the Lower and Upper Schools through integrated classrooms, intervention, and therapy as well as through more comprehensive services in The Learning Center.
Our Ex Ed professionals work with faculty and staff so that teachers are able to meet a variety of student needs across ability levels. We maintain high expectations for all students. Each service plan for students with a diagnosis follows the professional standards for accommodations and modifications based on individual testing and diagnosis.
With minimal support through accommodations, assistive technology, or modifications, most students can participate with their same-age, typically-developing peers for all school activities. Alternate reading and math curricula are used as needed for students who require a different means of instruction. CCS offers alternate diploma tracks according to student needs.

The Learning Center
We built the Learning Center to serve whole families and reflect God's kingdom. Located on the CCS campus, this learning facility provides an individualized, comprehensive education program for students in grades 6 and up who have more significant needs.

Exceptional Education staff work with the Hamilton County Department of Education (HCDE) to ensure that students at CCS are afforded an appropriate assessment as required by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) under the Child Find mandates. Many students at CCS receive therapy services including physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and language therapy through the provisions of IDEA for parentally-placed private school students.
