OUR SCHOOL

DEU 4:10

[Specially] the day that thou stoodest before the LORD thy God in Horeb, when the LORD said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and [that] they may teach their children.

HISTORY

Prior to 1989, there was not a non-church sponsored Christian private school in Cleburne, Texas, a community of 22,000 with more than 58 churches serving approximately 60% of those who regularly attended church. In 1989, three men hosted a city-wide meeting to explore the possibilities for such an educational facility. That meeting generated the impetus to open the doors for such a school in the fall of 1989. The funds needed were underwritten by the three founding families of the Cleburne Community Christian School (CCCS).

LOCATIONS

Thirty-seven students enrolled in preschool through fourth grades at CCCS that first year. Faculty and students initially met at the First Christian Church on Nolan River Road, but increasing enrollments made it necessary to seek other facilities. By securing a lease on the Family Life Center at Cleburne Bible Church, the school has had adequate room to expand and increase student population.

OUR FUTURE...

Consequently, an ambitious program of expansion has been undertaken in order to meet the needs of the growing numbers of families who seek the offerings of CCCS. CCCS acquired a 21-acre tract of land on Country Club Road in Cleburne as the site of our new campus. We have vacated the rented facilities at the Family Life Center where our students have attended school for the past several years and now have facilities established on our own property.

STATEMENT OF FAITH

	We believe the Bible to be the only inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God.
	We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
	We believe in the deity of Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His resurrection from the dead, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return to power and glory.
	We believe in the necessity of regeneration by the Holy Spirit, for "all have sinned and come short of the glory of God." (Roman 3:23)
	We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto the resurrection of life and the lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
	We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Jesus Christ.

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of Cleburne Community Christian School is to provide a quality education compatible with the Word of God, enabling our students to increase in wisdom, stature, and favor with God and man.

INTERDENOMINATIONAL POSITION OF CCCS

Cleburne Community Christian School is an independent, non-profit corporation not affiliated with any church. CCCS is dedicated to establishing and maintaining non-sectarian, interdenominational, Christian education in the Johnson County area.

Cleburne Community Christian School presents the following offering:

	A strong Christian academic curriculum in traditional classrooms.
	A quiet, disciplined learning environment in which reverence for God, country, and family is valued and taught.
	Programs designed to develop the physical and creative potential of the students.

In our desire to maintain the interdenominational position of the school, it is necessary that we remind staff, faculty, parents, and students that the following areas are left to the teaching done at home and church:

Church government- authority, discipline.
Time and mode of baptism.
Time of the Rapture.
Second work of grace- baptism of the Holy Spirit.
Sinless Perfection.
Gifts of the Spirit- tongues, interpretation of tongues, healing, miracle working, prophecy, discerning of spirits.

We desire to remain united in the salvation and love of Christ, avoiding the dissension of denominational problems

CCCS is in need of volunteers. Volunteers can serve in many different ways at CCCS. There is a constant need for participation at all levels. Please contact the school office if you feel that you can serve in any capacity.
