<div>For over <strong>130 years</strong>, Catholic education has been a cornerstone of Sheboygan’s south side. What began in 1888 with St. Peter Claver Parish continues today through <strong>Christ Child Academy (CCA)</strong>—a school where faith, academics, and community come together to form tomorrow’s leaders.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re proud that Christ Child Academy is the <strong>top-rated private school in Sheboygan County and ranked #2 out of 25 public and private schools.</strong> Our students, from 3K through 8th grade, grow not only in academics, but also in their faith, character, and service to others. In the past decade alone, our alumni have earned 28 valedictorian or salutatorian honors—a testament to the strong foundation built here.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why We Need Your Help</strong>
</div>
<div>Like most Catholic schools, tuition covers only part of the true cost of a Christ Child Academy education. The Annual Fund is our primary fundraiser, bridging that gap and providing critical unrestricted funds that directly support students, teachers, and programs.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generosity helps us:
</div>
<div>1.   Maintain small class sizes and a faith-based learning environment
</div>
<div>2.  Provide innovative curriculum and technology
</div>
<div>3.  Support dedicated teachers and staff
</div>
<div>4.  Keep Catholic education affordable for families
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every dollar raised directly impacts our students today and strengthens the future of Catholic education in Sheboygan.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our Mission</strong>
</div>
<div>Christ Child Academy is a Catholic community supported by St. Peter Claver, Immaculate Conception, and Ss. Cyril &amp; Methodius Parishes. We believe every child is infinitely valuable and loved by God. Our mission is to nurture spiritual, academic, and personal growth so that every student can reach their full potential.

<div><strong>A Message from Our Principal</strong>

Every day, I am reminded of the incredible generosity of our families, parishioners, and community.

<div><strong>Parent Testimonial</strong>
</div>
<div>"Sending our children to Christ Child Academy has been one of the greatest blessings of our lives. Every day, they are surrounded by teachers and classmates who not only challenge them academically but also encourage them to grow in their faith. At CCA, Catholic values aren’t just taught—they are lived, woven into every lesson, prayer, and act of kindness. Knowing that our children are being shaped into strong, faith-filled young people gives us such peace and hope for their future. We truly believe the foundation they are receiving here will guide and inspire them for the rest of their lives."
