Crown Point Christian School

What Crown Point Christian School does

Crown Point Christian School (CPCS) is a private, faith-based PreK through 8th-grade institution founded in 1985 and headquartered at 10550 Park Place in St. John, Indiana. The school serves approximately 954 Elementary and Middle School students with a 12:1 student-to-teacher ratio across roughly 40 homerooms, delivering a Christ-centered curriculum that integrates the proprietary Teaching for Transformation (TfT) instructional framework with academics, athletics, and student services. Specialized offerings include a K-8 Dual Language Spanish Immersion track, a STEAM program, music (choir, orchestra, band), middle-school Royals Athletics, before/after-school CAMP care, and student services covering special education, counseling, and enrichment.

The business model is tuition-recurring, supplemented by an unusually diversified set of auxiliary revenue streams: the wholly-owned Second Life Resale Shoppe, an annual benefit auction, an annual golf outing at Innsbrook Country Club, the Scrip/RaiseRight gift-card rebate program, the Rooted to Flourish capital campaign, planned giving through Barnabas Foundation, and athletic boosters and parents club contributions. Indiana Choice Vouchers and internal financial aid are accepted, while specific tuition rates are not publicly disclosed.

Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, combining a three-step RenWeb-based admissions process (online application, interview and campus tour with the Director of Admissions, spring enrollment packet), church pastor referrals, 'Mission to Motion' small group gatherings, and open houses to attract mission-fit families across Northwest Indiana. A planned second campus in Lowell, Indiana is scheduled to open in August 2028 starting with PreK through 3rd grade as part of a multi-phased expansion supported by the Rooted to Flourish campaign. The school is governed by a Board of Trustees and is currently led by an Interim Head of School.
