How do you integrate computers and technology into the classrooms and curriculum?  All students at CCS participate in the Science of Computers Program.  Here they will learn not only basic computer skills but also block coding, keyboarding, elements of Microsoft Office, Google Drive, and the Google Classroom Platform.  This curriculum was designed with the help of a Computer Science Professor at Morehouse University who is also a CCS parent.

What specials do you offer?  In addition to visiting the Computer Lab, students also have weekly opportunities in the Library, Physical Education, Art, and Music. 

How do you approach homework?  Homework is an opportunity to practice and develop skills related to concepts being taught in the classroom.  Covenant parents agree to be an active part in their child's education when they enroll, so homework also provides a way for parents to participate in the process.

Do you administer standardized testing and if so, where do CCS students rank in the scores?  CCS students take the Stanford Achievement Test each spring.  CCS students consistently surpass the national average scores on the Stanford in the content areas of math, language and reading. Our students, on average, fall within the top 30% of all students nationwide taking this test.

Logic students may participate in Student Council, the CCS Chapter of the National Junior Honor Society, National Junior Art Honor Society, lead/direct Chapel, work with younger students as 'skills buddies', peer tutoring, and other opportunities as the year goes along.

What education levels and qualifications do your teachers have, and what are their professional development opportunities?  All teachers have Bachelor’s degrees and some teachers have Master’s degrees. Teachers have proven classroom experience and participate in ongoing professional development.

How do you ensure safety on campus?  Our campus doors are always locked during the extended school day and have posted notices sending visitors to the front office.  Our main entrance has a security camera and requires buzzing the front office for entry.  We hold regular safety drills for fire, tornados, and unauthorized persons on campus.  CCS also hosts the Smyrna PD in classrooms for safety talks each year.

What is your discipline policy?  Incidents of misconduct within the classroom will be handled by the teacher in charge, who will follow up with the student as indicated.  If the consequences provided by the teacher are ineffective in changing negative behavior, the Principal will get involved to help the child and parents by providing more serious consequences such as an on-campus suspension.  If further disciplinary action is required, the Head of School will work with parents to create an improvement plan that may include consequences of at-home suspensions.  If the previous actions do not create a change in the child's negative behavior, the Head of School may permanently dismiss the student from CCS.
