Cornerstone Christian School (CCS) is a non-traditional Christian
school which includes grade level instruction, as well as multi-generational learning
environments. CCS has the flexibility to meet the needs of each student and to create
programs on an individual basis. It is an educational model based on the truth of God’s
Word and utilizing the life-lesson style which Jesus used with his disciples. All textbooks
which are part of the curriculum at CCS are from Christian publishers.
The morning instruction includes core curriculum in the areas of
Bible, mathematics, science, language, and social studies, as well as foreign languages.
These classes utilize Alpha Omega Publications’ Switched-On Schoolhouse program.
Switched-On Online is a Web-based learning environment featuring a media-rich, online curriculum
for grades 3 through 12. With 3-D animation, video clips, and other exciting multimedia, we have
found Switched-On Online to be a perfect fit for our Christian school.
Unlike traditional textbook curriculums, Switched-On Online has a diverse,
vibrant mix of entertaining lessons, assignments, and quizzes. Fun-filled lessons are created to
captivate students’ attention and engage them in learning. Interactive learning games, Web
links, and off-computer projects create opportunities for in-depth study. This
state-of-the-art learning environment helps train students in the areas of critical thinking and
self-motivation.
At Cornerstone, we utilize trained
and qualified facilitators to monitor the program, grade essays, lead discussions, answer
questions, and supervise projects. Having facilitators keeps the cost of private education
down, as well as prepares students for college level responsibilities.
Though the SOS program is the core of the instruction, there is a great amount of
interaction with the facilitators, a time for sharing and prayer, individual and class projects,
group activities, and modeling Christian character traits.
Afternoons are spent in FLEX time (Following the Lord’s
Example). This new practical application concept is one that includes service projects,
mission outreaches, “hands-on” learning, participation in the fine arts, and
in-the-field instruction.
