Our History and Leadership

View School Board CommitteesCentral Christian School began in 1957 as a school designed to provide a Christian environment for young children before they entered primary school. The school extended to higher grades over the years at the request of parents who saw the value in the education their children were receiving. The current program, preschool through Sixth Grade, has been established since the 1960s. The school building was constructed in the 1970s to house a growing student body. CCS continues to operate as a ministry of Central Presbyterian Church, E.P.C., with more than 235 students age 3 through Sixth Grade.

CCS is led by a 13 member Board of Directors that reports to the Session of Central Presbyterian Church. The Board consists of members elected by parents, Elders and others appointed by Central Presbyterian Church. The Board is structured into six committees, with a School Board member as Chair. Interested parents and teachers also serve on these committees as approptiate. The committees are: Education, Finance, Admissions, Development, Facilities and Spiritual Development.

The daily leadership of Central Christian School is provided by our Head of School, Joshua Crane.  Mr. Crane has a comprehensive background in Christian education.  He was on the founding board of Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee. He taught at Brentwood Academy and Ensworth School (both in Nashville) and also served as chief operating officer of a technology company. Mr. Crane holds an undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt University and a master’s degree in European Studies from the University of Glasgow .
