CCA students pass AP English exam
Date Posted: 8/19/2010 8:32:58 AM

Cari McMullen (Class of 2010) and Katherine Hooper (Class of 2010) recently received notification that they had passed the AP English exam.  Congratulations to these young ladies who are eligible for college credit for their hard work.  And many thanks to Mrs. Wingfield who teaches this important course.

“Through AP courses talented and dedicated AP teachers help students develop and apply the skills, abilities and content knowledge they will need later in college. Each AP course is modeled upon a comparable college course, and college and university faculty play a vital role in ensuring that AP courses align with college-level standards.”  For more information about Advanced Placement exams, please visit their website: www.collegeboard.com

CCA receives $100,000 gift for elementary computers
Date Posted: 8/13/2010 9:11:53 AM

Anna Thomas elementary school principal at Community Christian Academy, and the Board of Directors are pleased to announce the receipt of $100,000 from J. Lane Peck for the purpose of technology enhancements for elementary students.

“Mr. Peck called me to find out if we could make good use of some additional funding, and we had discussed technology. But I never thought we would have an opportunity like this,” said Mrs. Thomas.  The faculty formed a technology team to determine the highest and best use of the contribution.  “There are so many things you can do, but we wanted to make sure that our enhancements were scalable and portable, and we wanted to do this in a way that honors Mr. Peck.”

Through the program, the school purchased 68 computers, a laser printer for each classroom, a color laser printer, a document camera for each classroom (capable of capturing any image to project), smartboards for each classroom, and servers and wireless network equipment for the entire school.  The school also refurnished their computer lab to provide furniture better suited for younger students.

With keyboard and technology training beginning in kindergarten, CCA is confident that their students will be well-equipped for the technological opportunities of the future.  Additionally, internet access in all classrooms enhances learning and research.  “This new technology will enable our teachers to teach in a way that addresses individual learning needs and engage the students in a more interactive environment. We feel that our opportunities to teach and learn are unlimited.  With the assistance of Mr. Peck, we continue our path to academic excellence by the technological advances we offer to young minds and enhanced teaching techniques for educators,” said Mrs. Thomas.

CCA was also blessed to receive in-kind gifts of installation and services from Brandon Griffith and ISG who advised the school regarding the purchase and personally oversaw the installation, and Steve Thomas from Data Vault who is providing all of our back-up (free of charge).
