We recognize that God has created each student uniquely, and students may have a wide variety of learning, developmental, behavioral, emotional, or physical needs. Our desire is to welcome and serve students whenever we are able to do so effectively. A student with a learning difference or individual need is not precluded from admissions, but these limitations are taken into consideration during the application process. We look at each student individually to understand their strengths and needs and determine whether CCHS can provide an environment and appropriate support for the student to be successful.

As a private school, CCHS is not able to provide the same level of resources, services, or specialized support available through a prospective student’s public school. We are not required to implement IEPs/504s issued by public school systems. However, we are committed to providing strong teaching practices and a defined range of general classroom accommodations for the student needs we are equipped to serve effectively. We believe it is important to be honest with families about the level of support we can provide. While our desire is to help every student we can, we have a responsibility to ensure that the needs of each student can be appropriately supported within our programs, services, and staff capabilities.

If, after reviewing a student’s individual needs, it is determined that CCHS may not be the best environment to meet his/her specific needs, that decision should be understood as a matter of institutional integrity, rather than a reflection of his/her worth, potential, or value. Specifically, it recognizes the school’s current ability to provide the appropriate level of support and its desire to help each student find an environment where he or she has the greatest opportunity to flourish.
