A Note from the Head of School at Christ Classical Academy of Charlotte

September 08, 2025
By Dr. Kerri Miner

Christ Classical Academy of Charlotte is a small, private, Christian school in Charlotte, North Carolina. As it is our mission to be intentionally diverse, we serve children and families from many cultures, countries, and ethnic backgrounds. We serve mostly an urban population, some of whom live at or below the poverty line in Charlotte and might not attend our school without help from the NC Opportunity Scholarship, while others have no financial struggles at all.
We are not a “covenant” school, which means we have some students who do not attend church, so CCAC is the only opportunity some of them have to hear about Christ and the Gospel. We do not take this responsibility lightly. The Bible is integrated into every subject we teach, and our staff are trained to “teach Christianly” at all times.
Additionally, we are the only Classical or Christian school in the area (of which we are aware) with a thriving ESE (Special Ed) department. Approximately 20% of our students demonstrate special needs. While we are not a “Special Education” school, we are grateful to serve children with special needs as they are immersed in the regular classroom. As a result, our typical learners learn to see all humans as image-bearers of God, who are to be loved and respected.
We are not your average Christian school. We are not your average Classical school. We are not your average private school. Christ Classical Academy of Charlotte is a mission field. Every day, our teachers share the love of Christ and the hope of the Gospel with children, some of whom might otherwise never hear it. We are unique, training up future leaders who will think critically, live faithfully, and love the Lord our God with all their hearts.
But we cannot do this alone. Tuition only covers a portion of what it takes to serve our diverse families, maintain our thriving programs, and continue providing an excellent Christ-centered, rigorous, inclusive, classical education while reaching children and families for Christ. Your partnership makes it possible.
Will you prayerfully consider supporting this mission today? Every tax-deductible gift, large or small, makes an eternal impact in the lives of children and families in Charlotte and on the Kingdom of God as a whole.
