CCCS offers a program of academic excellence. A sound program that fosters academic excellence is not a goal at CCCS, it is the norm. In our quickly evolving society, the future holds realities that we cannot even imagine. Students of today will eventually work at jobs yet to be invented. We cannot prepare students for an unknown future, therefore, we teach them to be problem-solvers; we challenge them to think critically and creatively. We enable students to intellectually compete with others and to gain competence and confidence in their approach to work. We teach them to communicate clearly, appropriately and cogently. School-wide scores on the Terra Nova testing, provide evidence of a strong curricular program. CCCS students’ scores across all grades and subjects compare favorably when compared to other students in the diocese and in the Province of Florida, which encompasses all Catholic schools in the state.

The competence and readiness of teachers is outstanding. All CCCS teachers are qualified and certified by the State of Florida. These teachers dedicate themselves to the formation of children with great fervor and diligence.

All that we do is geared toward setting students up for success. We strategically work with students and their families to see that all students have what they need to reach their full potential.  A team of administrators, teachers, a guidance counselor and Student Support Director work together with both students and parents to motivate and inspire students and to build their skills and knowledge.

Extra-curricular activities serve to enrich the overall experience for students. CCCS offers a variety of clubs that provides students of all ages the opportunity to participate. The centerpiece of our extra-curricular offerings is our sports program. Middle school students can enjoy a full offering of inter-scholastic sports. (see Extra Curr. Tab for more details)

Choosing CCCS for your child is choosing a future full of promise. Our school is a place where young scholars grow into caring, competent thinkers, armed with what they need to make a marked difference in our world.  

CCCS students are very well prepared for high school following graduation. 90+% go on to attend Jesuit High School, Academy of the Holy Names, or Tampa Catholic High School. However, Students have also been accepted in to Public, Preparatory High Schools and/or IB Programs.
