Cedar Park Christian Schools

What Cedar Park Christian Schools does

Cedar Park Christian Schools is a private, nonprofit, multi-campus Christian K-12 school system headquartered in Bothell, Washington, operating as an integral ministry of Cedar Park Assembly of God Church (DBA Cedar Park Church). The school serves preschool through 12th-grade students across three physical campuses in the Puget Sound region — Bothell (PK-12, 1,000+ students, on a 48-acre shared campus with the parent church), Lynnwood (PK-12, 415+ students), and Mill Creek (PK-8, co-located with Christian Faith Center) — and additionally runs a regional Independent Study program for homeschool families. The institution is accredited by the Washington State Board of Education, the Association of Christian Teachers and Schools (ACTS), COGNIA, and the National Council for Private School Accreditation (NCPSA), and reports a 100% college acceptance rate across graduating classes. Core products are vertically integrated by grade band (Preschool, Elementary K-5, Middle School 6-8, High School 9-12), supplemented by Extended Care/Childcare, The Arts, Athletics, FIRST Robotics (CPR Team 3663), Summer School, International F-1 Student Program, and Concurrent/Dual Credit courses in partnership with Northwest University, Northwest Nazarene University, and Dallas Baptist University.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through recurring tuition (billed annually with 12-month installment payment plans), with secondary contributions from a non-refundable $100 application fee, a $400 Senior Year fee, RaiseRight (Scrip) gift card fundraising credits, an annual auction, and limited ancillary services such as Extended Care and Childcare. Multi-child tuition discounts, a 3% full-payment discount for accounts settled by June 15, and financial aid up to 35% of tuition provide price flexibility. The go-to-market motion is sales-led direct admissions: family inquiries convert through campus tours, RenWeb-based online applications, student interviews, financial aid counseling, and enrollment contract execution with a tuition deposit.

Operationally, the technology stack is utility-grade rather than differentiated — Google Workspace for classroom and administrative use, the FACTS/RenWeb platform for student information and tuition billing (District Code CP-WA), Canva for newsletter design, and RaiseRight for fundraising. The leadership team is led by District Superintendent Dr. Jerry Eshleman, supported by campus-level principals, academic counselors, a missions coordinator, and program coordinators for senior events, yearbook, extended care, and the Independent Study program.
