Philosophy of Education
Present Students with a Biblical Wordview. Crossroads Christian Academy uses curriculum that both meets state standards and a Biblical worldview. Our students receive the level and content required by the state of Ohio through a Biblical lens. In the classroom, teachers and students discuss the theories and arguments presented in school standards with the Biblical truth, so our students have an accurate understanding.
Honor God While Meeting Student Educational Needs. Our objective is to meet all the educational needs of students and honor God while doing so. This great objective is accomplished by obeying the Biblical imperative of Deuteronomy 6:5-7 and Proverbs 22:6.
- Deuteronomy 6:5-7, “…love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today, are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children.”
- Proverbs 22:6, “Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it.”
Collaborate with Parents in Training Students. Crossroads Christian Academy is an extension of the Christian home in training young people in a Christian environment for time and eternity. The staff collaborates closely with parents to train the whole child. Attendance at CCA is a privilege and not a right. The goal of the school is not to reform, but to train youth in the highest principles of Christian leadership, self-discipline, individual responsibility, personal integrity, and good citizenship. As an institution, Crossroads Christian Academy upholds the highest standards of morality and Christian behavior.
We warmly welcome your child into our school family!

Curriculum
Crossroads Christian Academy uses the Ohio Department of Education’s State Standards as the basis for building our curriculum. All curriculum is selected carefully to make sure it aligns with Biblical truth and gives a solid foundation for the students’ educational experience.
CCA employs varying publishers of curriculum to help our students master the Common Core standards. Bob Jones University, Answers in Genesis, and McGraw Hill are examples of those publishers. Our teachers work hard to build a curriculum
that uses a combination of the best possible resources to encourage our students to meet/exceed grade-level standards.CCA maintains the belief that all students can learn and that progress over time is what is to be evaluated. We look at each individual student and formulate lesson plans that allow students to work at levels that are challenging to them based on what they know and not limited to their age or grade level. CCA assesses the strengths of each student, builds on those strengths, and evaluates student progress over time.
