We use a Bible Curriculum by Karyn Henley; everyday each lesson includes a Bible story and Bible verse. Two days a week the children gather for worship time. We conduct a chapel time comprising of a dramatic presentation of songs, movement, prayer and a Bible story that coordinates with the Bible Curriculum. Colleyville Christian School is a Christian education program designed to teach gifted and talented children in a challenging academic and pleasurable social environment. We are a Christian School and the Bible is the primary source of our core values. Each age of child will be placed in the class that is coordinated with his/her kindergarten school year. We use the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) observation checklist in each of our classrooms. We also follow the Texas State Minimum Standards and Rules as published by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services. Our Staff Our staff is comprised of only certified teachers and/or highly experienced teaching professionals from the DFW Christian community. Colleyville Christian School’s philosophy is to invest heavily in the staff in terms of training, resources and compensation because they will plant the seeds that will help grow in the children for many years to come. Our Facility Colleyville Christian School is located on a twoacre campus specifically designed to meet the needs of early childhood education. In addition to large classrooms, our campus has a library with over 4,000 children’s books and five wellequipped playgrounds. During the summer of 2013, we renovated our outdoor rest area into a brand-new functional covered gazebo chapel area for the children! Parents are always encouraged to take a tour of our campus.
