High School
Preparing for a Life of Purpose
At Carolina Christian School High School, we do more than prepare students for college—we prepare them for life. Through spiritual transformation, academic excellence, and leadership development, we equip students to impact their communities and the world for Christ.

Why Choose CCS for High School?
Our mission is to guide students in understanding God and His world while developing the knowledge, character, and skills needed to thrive in college and beyond. Every aspect of our program—academics, student life, and spiritual formation—is designed to help students live with purpose.
Academics & College Preparation
Our high school program is academically rigorous and tailored to prepare students for their next steps.
Grading & GPA
We use a 10-point numeric grading scale and calculate both unweighted and weighted GPAs. Honors, AP, and Career & College Promise (CCP)/Dual Enrollment courses earn an additional quality point, allowing for a weighted GPA above 4.0
