Testimonials and Reviews
"This may be the most serious attempt yet at a truly Christ- centered preschool and foundational school program... CCP is certainly a far cry from the stray Bible-verse-here-and- there or add-one-missionary -plus-one-missionary approach of much of Christian curriculum."

"When I visited Rocky Bayou Christian School where Doreen Claggett's breathtaking early curriculum and pedagogy were applied to children starting at age three, I was pleasantly shocked. ...Since that day I have been proclaiming the courageous educational breakthrough in total world-view education that is happening through Mrs. Claggett's biblical world view curriculum and methodology."

"Thank you for the work you are doing in restoring truly Christ- centered education to our country and our children ... others have done well but you excel them all!!"

"... little did I know the positively radical change [your curriculum] would make in the lives of our entire family. ...As I began to see Christ as the center of all wisdom and knowledge, a change began to take place in me. Rather than a God to add to the other things in my life, I saw for the first time a God who would be the center of my life. ...Now, after teaching for six years, I am just as excited as the first day!"

Christ Centered Phonics does an excellent job of incorporating Scriptural principles, Bible stories, and Christian character development into their program. This program encourages brief academic periods for three-year-olds, with gradually longer teaching periods for four-year-olds and up. The sequential format with lots of repetition makes this possible. This is a very detailed, structured program with accompanying teacher’s guides that are necessary to the program. Word-for-word lessons make it easy for the inexperienced teacher to present lessons.

"The longer I use CCC, the more I appreciate it. Listening to some of my friends' problems with other curriculums, I am thankful the Lord led me to CCP. Thank you!"

We are going really well with all of our materials. I am finding the CCC materials so easy to use and Caleb is getting such excellent results around 99% average. I can see his understanding opening up each day. It's so exciting. Samuel is doing wonderfully well too. He loves the work so much he cries when we are finishing our Math lessons, not starting them - which is so encouraging. My husband is so thrilled he said that it is very different to what he experienced as a boy in school. What treasure - to have a love of learning.

"God has used the Christ-Centered material in many wonderful ways. The very first day we started phonics, we were going over the short Aa card's rhyme. When I explained what it meant to remain in Adam, both of my children said, 'I don't want to remain in Adam! I want to be in Christ!' So we prayed for God's forgiveness and salvation through Christ. . . . The rhymes on each of the phonics cards really help them to understand spiritual truths. And the character qualities of the math animals really help them as well. It is not just my children who have benefited from the Christ-Centered Curriculum. The Lord used it to change my life as well! . . . As I taught my children, I noticed that my world view was changing! Praise the Lord! In addition to my world view, my work ethic also changed. . . . I thank [God] for leading me to your curriculum and I pray you will be encouraged to continue doing the work He has prepared you to do!"

"I used your program to teach my two oldest daughters to read. They both began reading independently within a week of their fourth birthdays. They are now 10 and 12 years old and read avidly! My 10 year old carries Little Women (the unabridged version) around in her purse. I don't know how many times she's read it. When she was finishing up the last phonics book we had a new baby. We put away the phonics program to save for him. I began using the flashcards with him at 3 and he began reading independently at THREE AND A HALF! Our fourth child will turn 3 in December. I can hardly wait to begin phonics lessons with her (although she does sit in on her brother's lessons). . . . I cannot say enough about your program. I hope you're still around when my grandchildren are learning to read!"
