Hi! My name is Diane McCurdy, and our journey with CCA began in 2013 when my daughter started as a 7th-grade student. She graduated from CCA in 2019. After seeing how impactful CCA was for our family, I chose to stay on as a Family Mentor because of how much I truly love the CCA community.
My daughter thrived at CCA both academically and socially. One of the biggest surprises for us was how much more social interaction she had through CCA than at our local school—especially through field trips and school activities, which gave her meaningful opportunities to connect with peers and build confidence. Those connections lasted well beyond graduation, and she still keeps in touch with many friends she made through CCA.
We greatly appreciated the flexibility and wide range of opportunities CCA offers, which helped our daughter discover her passion for Ninja Warrior. She was first introduced to the sport through CCA’s Adventure Club and field trips. That exposure, combined with CCA’s flexibility, allowed her to pursue the sport she loves—ultimately leading to a World Championship win.
As a Family Mentor, I truly enjoy sharing our experience and helping other families see what’s possible at CCA. I’m here to support you, answer questions, and help you make the most of your own CCA journey.
