Profiles

Cherokee Christian Schools is a private Christian school in Woodstock, Georgia, United States enrolling students from kindergarten through 12th grade. Its primary organization includes the Academy (kindergarten, elementary, and middle) and the High School. The Administration of CCS includes a Board of Directors, a Superintendent, and respective principal of elementary, middle school and high school. It is a traditional school in that students attend 5 days a week and follow a period schedule and calendar similar to local public schools.

The school was originally established in 1986 under the auspices of the session of Cherokee Presbyterian Church (PCA) in an effort to establish a Biblical alternative to secular, public schooling utilizing a traditional education model. As the school grew, grade-levels were added yearly until, in 1997 it added the 12th grade and saw the first graduating class. For financial reasons, the high school was terminated two years later, followed by a hiatus of 9 years, but has since been re-established and is now in separate high school facilities on another part of the campus.

The Middle School's principal is Richard Goff. While in Middle Scholl the students there can participate in an elective alongside the usual 5-subject course. Which consists of Math, Bible, English, Science, and History. Some of the electives include:

  • Computer Programming I and II
  • Journalism
  • Improv
  • Drama
  • Fashion Design
  • Study Hall
  • Art
  • Chorus
  • Band
  • When the school outgrew the initial facilities also housing Cherokee Presbyterian Church facilities, the school relocated to its current site at 3075 Trickum Road, Woodstock Georgia. The school's facilities have progressively expanded so as to now include an elementary building, with a fine-arts wing and a middle-school wing, a separate high school building, and athletic fields. The school recently acquired an adjacent property, nearly doubling the available campus acreage, with long-range plans to include a separate fine-arts building.
