Education

Anchored in Faith

We partner with parents to educate and disciple their children with biblically integrated curriculum.

You are the most important person in your child’s development.

Raising a child to be successful is about teaching them to understand who Jesus Christ is and how God plays a role in all aspects of our lives. When you homeschool with Collierville Classical School, you gain access to an amazing educational facility that makes the Bible part of everything we do, teach, and learn. Beyond offering textbooks and classrooms, we want to equip parents as they seek to teach and disciple their families.

As a ministry of Central Church, CCS is able to offer:

  • Biblically integrated curriculum that shows how the Bible interacts with science, the humanities, and art

  • Pastoral services such as counseling and teaching

  • Expanded resources to facilities and extra-curricular activities

  • Community and support through Central’s ministries

  • A partnership with other parents and pastors

About CCS

Collierville Classical School is led by Central Church. As taught in Deuteronomy 6, we are commanded to diligently teach our children, and we believe there is a growing need for quality Christian-based education that guides children in truth, builds a faithful community, and prepares them for academic and life success.

CCS seeks to empower families through a hybrid homeschool model, with students having two days of in-classroom instruction with experienced teachers, building friendships, extra-curricular activities, and then three days of at-home learning with their families. CCS will provide a robust classical Christian education, homeschooling resources, and community support to help you be successful.

Lead Teaching Pastor of Central Church

“We must strategically train up the next generation of servant-leaders for the glory of God. In a world that continues to tell us lies about our identity in Christ, we must reinforce the truth of the scriptures to our children. CCS not only allows us to partner with parents to provide an excellent education, but it also allows us to partner with parents as they seek to disciple their children.”
