Health and Wellness Plan
Dear CBA Community, We are ready to welcome our students back to school. We’ve spent the summer rejuvenating and praying for another healthy and productive school year. This month, teachers are returning to campus this week and next for a series of professional development training days. I can tell you they are full of joy […]
Sexual Abuse Prevention and Bible Lesson
Dear parents, We are studying through the Bible for 3 years (Gospel Project). This week, we will be learning about the temple of God. The temple in the Old Testament demonstrated how God wants to be with His people. In fact, He said His name is Emmanuel which means “God with us.” In the New […]
From the Headmaster: Learning Loss during School Breaks
Dear CBA Community, Summer break is nearly here. Whoohoo! God has been amazingly good to us this past year. The school as a whole missed less days this past year than any of the prior years, when hurricanes kept interrupting our classes. Many of us are dreaming about vacations, BBQ, and a slower pace this […]
2020. A death and life situation. Thoughts from Dr. Johnson.
In an affluent society, it is easier to be an atheist. Or at least a pragmatic atheist. Regardless of what you say you believe, our actions can look like we are controlling our own destiny and we live for the here and now. Where we spend our money and time will quickly reveal where our […]

Incredible Beginnings – A Glimpse at our Elementary Chapels
In our staff time this morning I explained that this has been the smoothest school start in our 6 years. That is God’s grace! I believe there are many factors, such as different drop-off points, and decreasing the number of students in each room while increasing student-teacher ratios. It is also due to parents truly […]
An Oasis of Joy
164 days. March 13-August 24th. 164 days without teachers and children in the hallways. 5 days. This week. 5 days with voices and laughter of children filling every corner of campus. Sometimes we experience emotions where we struggle to find words to express what we feel. The closest word for how I have felt this […]
Keep Your Kids Culturally Active this Summer (Without Travelling) Written by: Ashley Shannon
My three-year-old daughter’s favorite song is “Jesus Loves the Little Children of the World.” She belts it out whenever or wherever she feels the inclination. When I was her age, I also liked to sing and dance. My parents ran a group home for young adults with intellectual disabilities. We lived with these six individuals. […]
