Community Charter School
This is the second year my kids have been at CCS and we really enjoy it. The teachers and principal seem to be genuinely concerned about the students' overall well being and they encourage creativity. My only concern is that they would create a better way for students' to do their homework during after school care.

Frankie Blackwell: I have an opporunity to be an extended family member of twins at CCS and the staff and teachers are what all school systems should have. The freedom of self express and talent give kids something to look foward to even if home life is difficult. The principal really care about the kids. Every morning she speaks and great all of the kids. Thank God for CCS

As a retired school teacher and a grandparent of some students in this school, I am very impressed by the quality of instruction and caring individual attention given at CCS. Their adherence to the state standards of instruction and the hard work to meet needs of students make this school stand out among other charter schools.
