About Us
Crossing Point Christian School is a ministry of First Christian Church, McKinney, Texas. The school was started in 1993 and was the vision of Rev. Bobby Cook, the senior minister at that time. Rev. Cook, along with a committee of lay people and the first director Kelly Close, wanted to provide a school that would serve McKinney and the surrounding communities.
Crossing Point continues to follow that vision today. We strive to meet the needs of individual children and their families within our community; accepting the uniquness of each child as God created them. Helping them to grow academically, spiritually, physically and emotionally is the primary goal of our school and its staff.
Our team staff consists of 25 staff members, including teachers, assistants and adminsitration. The average tenure for the staff is 8 years providing both experience and consistency for families.
Our Philosophy
We are dedicated to the philosophy that young children grow in an orderly and sequential manner with predictable stages of development. We recognize that each child is unique and accept each child at their current stage of development. It is our intention to nurture the development of the whole child — physical, emotional, social, cognitive, and spiritual growth.
The program shall provide each child with age appropriate experiences, which will encourage:
• Self-esteem and positive self-image
• Social interaction
• Self-expression and communication skills
• Creative expression
• Large and small muscle development
• Intellectual growth
• Spiritual development
The program schedule shall be planned to provide a flexible balance of:
• Active and quiet activities
• Individual and group activities
• Indoor and weather permitting outdoor activities
