We are a cyber charter school in PA serving the Wilkes-Barre area and providing our students with a quality, personalized online education.
We meet each child where they are, providing a flexible learning environment and customized education options free from academic limitations due to overcrowding, safety risks, or budget restraints.
CCA provides flexible, quality education for Pennsylvania students in grades K-12.
Education has changed in recent years, with more families embracing the personalized attention and educational opportunities an online learning environment provides. Instead of living at the mercy of a school timetable, your child can learn at their own pace within the safety of your home.
At CCA, we pride ourselves on offering a rich, well-rounded education that gives students lifelong skills. Parents and students benefit from enrolling at CCA for the following reasons:
Every child is different, with unique skills, interests, and needs. Instead of falling back on traditional methods where students must all learn at the same speed, CCA understands that students learn best in individual time frames. We prioritize personalized learning to give children what they need as they progress.
Students follow unique graduation paths at CCA, creating customized paths to graduation and targeting their skills and interests to engage them in learning. Students are no longer passengers in their learning journey — they are active participants, free to explore new courses and concepts. Our investment in customized learning programs means students drive their own success with the full backing and support of our experienced staff.
Whatever your child’s interest, they have opportunities to rival any in-person school. From local school district sports teams to arts and culture, CCA students have opportunities to be involved in numerous extracurricular activities, broadening their experiences. Our built-in schedule flexibility gives your child more time to take advantage of the activities and events.
Connection is a powerful tool in education. Our online school interactions are dynamic and varied. Students connect with classmates across the state in real-time during virtual lessons. They can also attend hundreds of social and educational field trips throughout the year, join any club that appeals to them, and enjoy various events at one of our Family Service Centers.
CCA has dozens of clubs — we’re always adding more to meet students’ needs. Your child can choose between virtual and in-person club meetings in STEM, arts, literature, volunteering, and many other options.
CCA also pioneered the use of fully equipped mobile classrooms to build connections with our valued families. They are on the road all year, enhancing online school socialization and exposing students to diverse interests, from astronomy to aquaponics.
At CCA, education is a team effort. We’re here to support families as they navigate online learning. Students who need help or advanced teaching get everything they need to succeed. Our family mentor program is an all-around favorite, connecting newly enrolled families with current parents to adjust successfully to the role of Learning Coach. Our family mentors have been where you are, which makes them the perfect resource for common questions and challenges.
You can use our non-academic support throughout the year, schedule in-person meetings, attend gatherings for new families, or take to social media for tips and information.

When technology is part of their daily lives, students can adapt quickly to changes in the digital landscape.
