«Every single student matters to us. All are expected to work hard, stay focused, and keep improving. We regularly analyze data on students’ progress to create individualized action plans that ensure no student falls through the cracks, and that each is challenged and supported. Our teachers know how to connect and engage with young people, inspiring them to see themselves as scholars and take ownership of their learning and their futures. CCSC students are motivated to work hard and do their best because they see how much their teachers care.»
