All staff of Christian Community School are Christians who are active in their faith and are regularly attending and active in a church community. The many facets of the school staffing and structure contribute to a holistic approach toward student spiritual, academic, and personal growth.

In practice this is achieved by delegating responsibilities to other staff.
