Христианские школы Central Arkansas (CAC) - это группа из трех частных школ, базирующихся в Северном Литл -Рок, штат Арканзас , США. CAC was established in 1971 at Sylvan Hills Church of Christ in Sherwood , Arkansas. [ 1 ] Из -за даты основания школа была классифицирована как академия сегрегации, хотя записи о зачислении указывают на то, что в школе были зачислены чернокожие ученики уже в 1974 году. [ 2 ] Христианская школьная система Центральной Арканзас включает в себя комбинированный кампус средней и средней школы в Северной Литл -Рок и две начальные школы: кампус в Плезант -Вэлли/Литл -Рок и кампус в Северном Литл -Рок. [ 1 ] Вместе они составили четвертую по величине частную школу штата за 2018-19 учебный год. [ 3 ] Школы «связаны» с (но не управляются или принадлежат) церквями Христа и являются членами Совета по продвижению и поддержке образования . [ 4 ]
История
[ редактировать ]Central Arkansas Christian School opened in 1971. Because of the timing of the school's establishment, it has been categorized as a segregation academy, a term associated with private schools established in response to the court ordered racial integration of public schools.[5][6] The "founders of the school repeatedly stated that admission was open to all regardless of race." Black students were enrolled in the school as early as 1974.[2][5]
The organization bought 40 acres (16 ha) of adjacent land, for $500,000 in August 2003, to allow further expansion.[7] Notable visitors to the school include Pat Buchanan, who spoke to the high school students in 1999.[8]
