Our Alumni make up a beautiful quilt of varied
experiences and associations with not only Christian Central Academy,
but also our two predecessor schools: Alden Mennonite (AMS) and Faith
Christian Schools (FCS). (A CCA "alum" is defined as a student
who attended AMS, FCS, or CCA for at least one year, even if he or
she did not graduate.)
We strive to maintain current address information on all our alumni,
regularly printing class notes in the Academy Advantage. Alumni
are encouraged to keep in touch with us. E-mail us at cca@roadrunner.com.
