As Upper School students encounter the rich curriculum, they will begin to synthesize information using ideas from the best authors, mathematicians, philosophers, and more and test them against their own knowledge to formulate and articulate ideas about the nature of being human. Thus, their studies encourage forming opinions based on knowledge, not emotions.

CCA starts with the premise that our children are capable of great things and teaches accordingly. The result? Children meet those high expectations. Once you see the contrast in approaches — and the results — you would never choose anything else for your child.
