Focus is a morning assembly where students and faculty come together to commit the day to the Lord. Each month has a different theme with corresponding memory verses and songs. Together, we sing praise and worship songs led by worship leader Randal Butler and recite the pledges, weekly memory verses, anchor verse, and mission statement. Our middle school students are a big part of Focus as they serve on Focus teams with assigned jobs, and every Friday a couple of those students help lead worship. Every Wednesday, we have Chapel featuring a chapel speaker to expound on the week's memory verse. The last Friday of every month we have Family Focus, a time for families to join us for our morning assembly. Focus promotes unity within our student body while reminding students and teachers of their ultimate purpose: to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.
To kickoff the academic year, 5th-8th grades attend a weekend retreat called Fuel. There, students and teachers participate in team building exercises, fun activites, and corporate worship. The purpose of the retreat is to light a spiritual fire within the student body while building deeper relationships with one another.
The Salt and Light Project was adopted to fulfill both the Great Commission and our school mission; it teaches our students to be intentional about being salt and light in our local community. We partner with five different local organizations (St. Joseph Assisted Living, The Highlands, New Life Union Mission, Transitions, and Matthew 25:40), and every week a different group of CCA students serve at one of these organizations. By the end of the school year, the CCA student body will have actively served in the community once per week for thirty weeks. Teaching our students to serve and to see the needs of others is very important to us; we want our student body to be doers of the word...not just hearers.
