  • Strategic Plan

    The board of trustees and senior leadership are responsible for developing, articulating, and monitoring the strategic direction of the school. For its 2023-2028 strategic roadmap, Chattanooga Christian School gathered input from school stakeholders, including parents, students, alumni, and friends of the school through surveys, parent meetings, one-on-one conversations, and more. The plan is rooted in our mission and philosophical distinctives.

Aspiration Statement

Chattanooga Christian School aspires to more deeply anchor our people, programs, and activities in our distinct mission, core values, and ends while anticipating necessary and appropriate changes that enable us to respond to a changing world and equip our students to thrive as individuals united together to represent Christ and see His Kingdom. Our priorities over the next decade will focus on five areas of impact.

Five Impact Areas

1. ACADEMIC CULTURE & SCHOLARLY WORK
Building a community where shared beliefs, values, goals, and practices produce accountability to scholarship that generates student work recognized for its critical thinking, beauty, wisdom, and high quality.

2. DISCIPLESHIP & COMMUNITY BUILDING
Growing in knowledge and appreciation of the redeeming grace of God in Jesus Christ as it shapes our hearts, minds, and bodies within a community characterized by rich student life, spiritual growth, and connectedness.

3. EMPLOYEE RECRUITMENT, DEVELOPMENT, & RETENTION 
Strengthening and sustaining our capacity to attract, develop, support, and retain the best, most mission-appropriate faculty who demonstrate a deep and abiding love for Jesus, are experts in their field, and are committed to knowing and being known by their students.

4. CAMPUS IMPROVEMENTS & MASTER PLANNING
Enhancing facilities that are designed to be conduits of student growth, development, and achievement.

5. INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS
Generating and developing creative opportunities to advance the mission of CCS and better serve and support students, parents, and employees. 

Through these improvements, we desire to achieve the following outcomes:
  • Robust student interest in high-quality, mission-aligned culture and work
  • Engaging teaching/learning practices across all grade levels that is aligned to the Graduate Profile
  • Mission aligned biblical instruction and discipleship that promotes biblical literacy and real world application
  • Student life that represents the beauty and wholeness of God’s design for community living
  • Discipleship practices that engage students consistently and coherently in grace and truth
  • An overarching sense of connectedness and belonging by all students, families, and employees

"As we look to the future, we are also excited to begin implementing a new five year strategic plan approved by the CCS board. A key focus of that plan is to even more firmly anchor the school's people, programs, and activities in our distinct mission and core values."
