PARENT-TEACHER FELLOWSHIP
The basis for the Parent-Teacher Fellowship (PTF) is to honor God by doing everything for the Academy decently and in order and to bring glory to God through fellowship. “Whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” (I Corinthians 10:13)

The PTF exists in order to provide a framework in which both parent and teacher, through a mutual understanding of the opportunities involved in Christian education, may work together for the best interests of the child.

OBJECTIVES OF THE PTF
- To acquaint the parent with the philosophy of Christian education and the curriculum of Central Christian Academy.

- To acquaint the parent and teacher with the importance of recognizing, understanding, and adequately coping with the emotional, spiritual, and disciplinary needs of the child.

- To involve parents and teachers jointly in the growth and welfare of the school by undertaking prayerful support for the school’s financial, physical, and spiritual needs, as well as making the needs of the school known to parents so that they may help wherever possible.

- To provide an opportunity for the CCA family to get acquainted and have fellowship with each other.
