Annual Events

Back-to-School Kick-Off

This event has something for every member of the school community. New families can attend a special reception where students can meet their teachers, visit their classrooms, and drop off school supplies and more. Parents can attend the volunteer fair and gather more information about opportunities to get plugged in at Charlotte Christian. The event culminates in a family tailgate prior to the first home football game of the year.

Knightsfest

A festival-like atmosphere abounds at the annual Knightsfest event held each fall. Geared towards lower school students, this event features carnival games, pony rides, inflatables, a cakewalk and more. The event is usually held prior to a home football game. Food is available for purchase and wristbands for games are sold the week prior to the event.

Homecoming

Homecoming is held each year with a weeklong celebration of school spirit. From upper school class competitions, to middle and upper school themed dress-up days, activities take place daily leading up to the varsity home football game on Friday night. Pep rallies, homecoming dances and powder puff football games are additional activities planned for upper school students. For alumni, class reunions are held and provide an opportunity for many former students to return to campus to visit with their classmates and teachers.

Lower School Grandparents’ Day

Tailgate and Donate

Each year Charlotte Christian takes a week in the spring to support a local non-profit organization. Students compete to fill a truck with much-needed items to donate to the organization. The weeklong celebration culminates with a family-fun event centered around a varsity baseball game. The event features games, food and activities designed for all ages.
