Hello My name is Larisa Hope and I’m very excited to teach Kindergarten at CCA this year. This will be my 6 th year teaching Kindergarten using the Abeka Curriculum. Prior to coming to CCA, I held an Administrative position at Paw Creek Christian Academy . I received my Early Childhood Degree in 2011 and attended Gardner -Webb University. It’s my goal to create a classroom environment where children love to learn. I view this position as a ministry, and thank the Lord for all the opportunities He has given me thus far. I’m blessed with my husband Chuck , 4 children , 5 grandchildren and a new little grandchild on the way.

Jackie Morgan

6th - 8th Math

I am a mother of three sons, grandmother of six, and great-grandmother of three. I am richly blessed! I have worked with children for 32 years; 9 years as a daycare teacher, 9 years in public school, 5 years as a nanny, and 9 years at CCA teaching math and sign language. Although I enjoyed the work that I did in the past, I can honestly say that my time at CCA has been the most fulfilling. I have learned so much about being a child of God from the children in my classroom. The lessons have ranged from a better way to teach a math concept to the true meaning of mercy and grace. I can't wait to see how God uses the children in this year's classes to bring His Word to life!

I have a love for teaching students and helping them to learn the knowledge of the word of God as the high school Bible teacher. I, myself, was taught the knowledge of the Bible as a student at Southereastern Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, NC where I earned an Associate's Degree. I hope that you will encourage your child to always read and study the word of God.
