Training ethical servant leaders and wise thinkers who will shape culture for the glory of God.

Classical Christian School in Dallas

Families in Dallas have found a Christ-centered community at CDA, where parents and teachers walk together in our collaborative model to provide Christ-centered education for PreK–12 students.

Why Coram Deo Academy?

What influences will shape your child’s heart and mind now and into adulthood? At Coram Deo Academy, we believe God calls parents to be the primary educators of their children, and our collaborative university schedule is designed to help you fulfill that calling. Together, we surround your child with professional Christian educators and peers from like-minded families, providing a Christ-centered, Classical education. With a supportive community of over 900 families and teachers who know and love their students, CDA offers more than academics—it’s a place where your child will flourish and your family will belong.

Parents as Co-Teachers

We believe parents are called by God to be the primary educators of their children. Through our collaborative university schedule, parents participate as co-teachers, actively instilling biblical truth and guiding their child’s growth in both academics and faith. This partnership strengthens family bonds, creates meaningful time together, and supports parents in answering God’s call to train their children.

Collaborative Model

Our collaborative university schedule offers families the best of both worlds—high-quality classroom instruction combined with intentional learning time at home. By choosing this model, parents give their children a strong spiritual and academic foundation while also nurturing character, responsibility, and a lifelong love of learning.

Spiritual Foundation

By choosing CDA, parents give their children more than just an excellent education; they provide a Christ-centered foundation that prepares them to love the Lord with heart, soul, and mind. Students are trained to think critically, communicate with wisdom, and pursue truth, goodness, and beauty.

Prepared for What's Ahead

CDA students are well-prepared for life beyond our classrooms. The Class of 2025 earned $13M in scholarships, with students consistently scoring above average on the ACT and SAT. Nearly 99% of graduates go directly to college, and 90% serve through church or community volunteer work. Our alumni are shaping culture for God's glory through their work, families, and communities—showing that a CDA education equips students for both success and purpose.

Fine Arts, Athletics, and Electives

Through fine arts, athletics, and a variety of electives, students discover and develop their God-given gifts in ways that build confidence, character, and community. Whether performing on stage, competing on the field, or exploring new interests, each experience is designed to cultivate discipline, creativity, and integrity—equipping students to flourish in every area of life.

Our Community

Since 1999, Coram Deo Academy has offered Classical Christian education through a collaborative university schedule. Over 90% of families re-enroll their students after experiencing the unique educational model that sets us apart from the average Christian, charter, or college-preparatory academy. 

Teachers pray for their students and care about their spiritual growth. The curriculum reaches beyond academics—great focus is placed on God's sovereignty and how His perfect design exists in all subjects.

As I think back on my time at CDA...I value the experience of being around a group of teachers who followed Jesus.
