The Results Are In: Crook County Christian Is a S.M.A.R.T. Choice for Parents!

Every parent wants to provide their children with the best possible educational opportunities and advantages. As Oregon schools continue to struggle meeting basic student needs and education requirements, record numbers of families are turning to alternative options from homeschooling to private education. While parents have more options than ever before, here are several key reasons why Crook County Christian School might be the S.M.A.R.T. (and best choice) for your student to thrive.

The S.M.A.R.T. Advantage

Why are we seeing such great results? We want to be the best, we’re committed to our mission, and we follow time-tested biblical principles when choosing best practices for educating our students. So, what are a few of the reasons that make Crook County Christian a S.M.A.R.T. choice for your family compared to other schools and options?

S – Small Class Sizes

We intentionally limit class sizes to be 16 students or less per classroom. Low student/teacher ratios give our team the capability to better focus on meeting student needs. Whether your student thrives or struggles, our amazing teachers and teaching teams have more time and opportunity to help empower them to excel, grow, and progress!

M – Missionally Focused

We are laser focused on our mission of delivering the best possible spiritual and academic education that helps students know God through excellence in discipleship, academics and servant leadership. Students aren’t simply taught “what” to think, but how to think. Everything we do is done through the lens of biblical, Christ-centered, and mission-focused worldview.

A – Affordable/Accessible

Crook County Christian School is up to 50% lower than the most popular private schools in our region. Parents can get a superior and excellent private education (with proven, measurable results) at a fraction of the cost. One of our primary goals is to always be to provide superior results at the best possible cost. This is a Kingdom-minded ministry, not a profit-motivated one. Success is measured in results and accessibility.

R – Reading Emphasis & Results (Measured & Proven)

Crook County Christian School was founded on a simple principle…focus on developing strong literacy skills for future success and discipleship. If students cannot read, they’re learning in other areas is significantly impeded. We place a strong emphasis in prek – 2nd grade on developing early literacy skills. The results are soaring student reading and test scores compared to their peers locally and nationally. While Oregon’s public school test scores continue to be some of the worst in the nation (Oregon is 47th nationally), our students are thriving and accelerating.

T – Teaching Team (Talented, Qualified & Dedicated)

Our teaching team is amazing. Without them, we would not be able to achieve the results we’re seeing. Our goal is to consistently provide an environment where teachers & staff love to work, where they feel like family, and where they feel empowered to do their jobs effectively. By God’s grace, this has helped us consistently attract strong talent and to build a unified team. We’re all working together towards the same goal, and our students benefit and thrive. Our team is what makes CCCS to special & effective!

The Advantage of an Excellent, Christ-Centered Education

We believe EVERY private school should be expected to outperform the public education systems in their communities. Christian schools in particular should be offering nothing less than an EXCELLENT education that is centered on a biblical worldview. After all, we have the distinct advantage of building on a foundation on Truth (Jesus), in Whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2)! Building on a false foundation leads to impaired knowledge at best, and possibly far worse outcomes.
