School Reviews
5 11/10/2008
I highly recommend CCA for it's small school feel with the benefits of quality education and duel enrollment with Ferris. CCA band earns "I" ratings at the state level, and CCA sports programs, such as soccer, basketball, track and volleyball are competitive at the district and regional levels, yet there is room for most athletes to play. CCA was the first Charter school in Michigan to win a State Title (Girls cross-country) and I believe the first in the state to win a district championship (boys soccer).
