Crook County Christian School is pleased to announce that it appears we will have 100% re-enrollment of our entire elementary program (K-5) with the exception of one student whose family has relocated out of state. Additionally, we have several new families that continue to join us, and our Fall 2023 enrollment is up over 60% while growing towards its goal. This is an incredible accomplishment given average rates of student churn among private schools is typically 10-20%. What we’re seeing is an outflow of the support of and partnership with our parents, along with our strong emphasis on excellence in discipleship, academics and leadership.
What Our Parents are Saying…
As a parent, I continue to be struck with just how special Crook County Christian School is. Not only does this school set each student up for academic success, the staff and administration pour love, support, and encouragement into each student and family unit. It’s as if CCCS wraps around each family member and truly invests into each individual, helping them be the best Godly example of themselves. That type of school culture is bigger than academics, it’s strengthening families in a way that will change and shape generations of families for years to come. I can honestly say that each member of our family are better versions of ourselves because of our partnership with Crook County Christian School.

Success Factor #1: Relentless Pursuit of Excellence
Crook County Christian School’s success is in large part due to our pursuit of excellence, which is a biblical principle. In all things, our aim is to please God above all else!
And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him…And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.
Colossians 3:17,23-24
We serve an audience of One. It is Christ we aim to please, and in doing so, our families receive the benefits of our desire to do all things as unto the Lord. We give Him our best, and so our families also receive our best efforts! Even in areas we are the strongest, we always look for ways we can improve.
Success Factor #2: Our Staff and Team
Without a doubt, the most important tangible success factor in parent / student satisfaction is our incredible staff. They genuinely care about each student and family, they are gifted at what they do, and they take time to establish and build relationships that reinforce the culture we have worked hard to create. A private school’s most important tangible asset is its staff, and we are blessed to have such an amazing team!
Success Factor #3: Our Famlies
Another key factor to our success if having wonderful families who are vested in their students and want to see them thrive. Having good partnerships with families is possible when you have great families!

Together we’re building something that gives all of our children the opportunity to thrive!
Success Factor #4: Strong Discipleship and Academics
We place a strong emphasis on both discipleship and academics. We’re not just an alternative to other options, we believe we are the best option to provide students with a strong foundation spiritually and academically. We understand the strong correlation between teaching kids “how” to think so they can successfully navigate the world and to maintain a strong biblical worldview. Their capability to reason and be lifelong learners gives them and incredible advantage. Crook County Christian far more than an alternative for parents who desire excellence for their children. We want to remain your family’s best option, and it is behind everything we do and every decision we make!

There is wonderful culture that has been cultivated, and we continue to find ways to bring students, staff and families closer together. It’s what makes a great partnership and team!
Success Factor #6: Achieving Results
One of the key reasons families choose to be here is that they continue to see results. Whether it is student test scores, academic improvements, spiritual growth, or thriving emotional development, our parents continue to come again and again to share how happy they are with seeing their students thrive and grow in their skills and development. We place a strong emphasis on early literacy development, and we’re seeing that already paying huge dividends in our students.
