Our Career Pathways model is part of a schoolwide commitment to providing all students with 21st century skills, the ability to discover their future careers and the tools to succeed in life. This philosophy is part of the educational experience for all our cyber school students. We introduce elementary students to success skills and early career exploration.
By high school, students can explore any one of five different Career Pathways to gain knowledge, experience and skills that can be used in life after high school. Because of the flexibility of online school programs, students use Career Pathways to help discover internship possibilities in which they can participate during high school.
Our online charter school programs are customized for every level of learning. For students in grades 3-12 seeking more rigorous coursework, we offer an Honors program. In high school, we also offer Advanced Placement (AP) courses for an additional challenge and a robust list of post-secondary dual-enrollment programs. Students in the Honors program, which incorporates project-based learning, must regularly participate in class discussion and problem-solving. The Honors and Advanced Placement programs strive to meet or exceed the standards set forth by the National Association for Gifted Learners.
CCA’s K-12 English Language Development Program offers students customized learning opportunities and celebrates the cultural diversity of students in our cyber charter school programs.
Our multifaceted program provides English learners with targeted language development instruction in listening, speaking, reading and writing from PA-certified English as a Second Language Program Specialist Teachers and access to additional resources such as National Geographic’s English Language Development (ELD) curriculum.
To better communicate with families, we also provide interpreters and translations for all school-to-home communication, as well as traditional face-to-face support at our regional Family Service Centers and dedicated family mentors to support our English Learners.
Our special education program is successful due to its uniqueness. The program offers families with students who have special learning needs the ability to customize strategies and services.
We reach each student on their individual level by providing unique accommodations and modifications based on each student’s individualized education program (IEP). Accommodating whatever pace a child needs to learn is another benefit of cyber charter school programs, because students can learn at their speed on their schedule from the comfort and safety of their own home.
CCA’s online charter school programs are customized for each student to reflect the student’s individual interests, skills and learning styles.
Students and families are at the center of everything we do in our online school programs, and that means students can study what interests them, try something new because it’s OK to make mistakes along the way, and learn at a time and place that work best for everyone. We know our CCA students come to us with different learning levels and educational needs, and the flexibility of our cyber charter school programs allows us to provide each student with a customized, quality education.
If you need extra help in some courses, our teachers and school counselors are prepared to offer that assistance and even one-on-one sessions if necessary. If you’re looking for a more rigorous academic challenge, we offer an Honors program beginning in third grade. By high school, we add Advanced Placement (AP) courses and options for dual-enrollment in college courses.
The flexibility of our online school academic programs enables us to offer a wide variety of electives – a variety of world languages, every level of math, gaming and coding courses, 3D design, music and even a fly fishing course.
If your child wants to learn it, we can find a way to make that learning available through our online school programs.
CCA is accredited by the Middle States Association Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools, which recognizes that we provide a high-quality education that can be reciprocated with other schools. The accreditation also validates the value of CCA’s education to other accredited institutions.
We employ a dedicated staff of Pennsylvania-certified teachers, with their focus on working together with family members to customize a curriculum centered around students’ unique needs and interests, our teachers and counselors are an integral part of giving students the help they need to succeed and the room they need to grow.
In addition to providing an accredited core curriculum for all of our students, CCA and its teachers work career- and college-readiness skills into lessons and extracurricular activities beginning in kindergarten. By the time CCA students are seniors, they have the opportunity to explore multiple careers, build a portfolio, have a plan for after high school and are prepared to succeed in college or a vocational school, in the job market or as a member of the military.
Our staff and teachers are always on the lookout for ways they can connect with the students in our online school programs. Some of the programs they have helped develop include:
Our staff works with our college partners in the College in the High School program to present challenging courses and match students with college courses that align with their career or college interests. They also work with first-generation college students to prepare for applications and with all students to support their college and career searches.
For our elementary school students, we offer summer camps and a summer reading program with a bookmobile. We also provide STEM and drone summer enrichment programs for middle school students.
Pre-apprenticeship programs in carpentry, construction, electrical, HVAC, heavy equipment operator, plumbing and sheet metal.
Counselors work to match possibilities to students’ individual career interests.
Our counselors bring in career and military speakers to talk about career options, pathways and opportunities to help students explore many options for postsecondary paths.
