A CCS education is an investment in your scholar’s spiritual, intellectual, and character formation. We strive to make classical Christian education accessible to every family.

We believe finances should not be a barrier to quality Christian education. CCS offers financial assistance to qualifying families and is proud to be an ACE Scholarship partner school.
ACE Scholarships provide private school scholarships to lower-income families in Colorado. If your family qualifies, this scholarship can significantly reduce the cost of tuition.

Common Admissions Questions
Have questions about the enrollment process? Here are the most common questions from prospective families.
We recommend beginning as early as possible. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, and space fills quickly — especially in lower grade levels. Submitting an inquiry and attending an Open House in the fall or winter gives your family ample time to complete the process before the school year begins.
CCS partners with families who embrace the Christian faith. We ask that families align with our Statement of Faith and be in active communion with a local church. Our mission is to integrate faith into every aspect of education, and we want families who will support and reinforce that mission at home.

View Tuition & Fees →The family interview is a relaxed, conversational meeting with our Head of School or admissions team. It is not a test. We want to learn about your family’s values, your scholar’s learning needs, and your educational goals. It is also an opportunity for you to ask any remaining questions and ensure CCS is the right fit for your family.
