Policies

Each year we ask that both students and parents (or guardians) read the Student-Parent Handbook. A signed form is returned to acknowledge that both parents and students understand the policies of CCA.

This mutual agreement between CCA families and the school helps bring common understanding and knowledge in what families can, and should, expect from CCA as well as what faculty and staff of CCA can, and should, expect from students and families.
