CCA Is a Fully Accredited PA Public School

CCA is a K-12 public cyber charter school accredited by the Middle States Association Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools.

This accreditation recognizes that CCA is providing thousands of students a quality education that can be reciprocated with other schools, and it validates the value of CCA’s education to other accredited institutions. The accreditation recognizes that, while CCA delivers education in a nontraditional model as a cyber school in Johnstown, it adheres to accreditation standards and is committed to continuous improvement in student learning.

Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar schools that teach the same thing at the same time to every student in a classroom, CCA’s educational model ensures that students can learn at their own pace through online real-time lessons, recorded lessons, field trips, independent study and hands-on, career-readiness opportunities. This flexibility allows CCA to work with students and families to customize an accredited curriculum to best suit their needs.

Tuition-Free Online Learning for Johnstown Families

Our cyber charter school in Johnstown, PA, is authorized and overseen by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. State law requires cyber charter schools to be operated as nonprofit entities. CCA is independently run but funded with public money from the school districts in which our students live. What does that mean for parents? You can choose to attend our tuition-free public school that puts your family first and offers a customized online education for students in Johnstown and across Pennsylvania.

CCA partners with the entire family to develop a customized plan to help your child succeed at our cyber school in Johnstown. Each family helps us determine a student’s interests, skills and educational needs, and we customize a suitable learning plan. If your child is advanced in one subject area but needs additional support in another, CCA teachers stand ready to provide extra attention and advanced instruction.

Upon their enrollment, we provide students with everything they need to get started – free use of laptop and printer, plus all course materials. CCA even offers an instructional support subsidy to help families with the cost of internet service. For qualified community classes, CCA can reimburse up to $250 per child per school year.
