On April, 27th, 2023, CCA had its annual "Welcome to CCA" meeting with our new students and families in the Student Union of Yerba Buena High School. Students and families learned about our program, school, and got to meet many of our CCA teachers and leadership/ASB students. Ella T., Megan P., and Dasha A. did an amazing job presenting to our new students what it means to be a CCA student.
The PEG (Parent Engagement Group) also had a presentation where they recruited parents to help make CCA a better place for students and parents. Thank you to everyone who showed up and helped welcome our new set of Ravens!!!
Below you will find:
1) Slide presentation created by our students
2) The PEG slide presentation.

Enjoy!!

The Acts of Random Kindness club held their first “Monday Munchies” breakfast event to kick start state testing! They will be providing free breakfast to all student & staff every Monday of state testing. Students were able to dish out four kinds of bagels, cream cheese, yogurt parfaits, and orange juice! The goal is to ensure students and staff are nourished and to reduce the stress and anxiety associated with testing. Thank you to those at participated. Good luck on the SBAC, Ravens!

What is Leadership?

This year-long class is designed to help you discover and develop your talents as a leader. Everyone has the potential to lead, and every day provides you with opportunities and possibilities to lead. In this class you will be actively engaged in activities such as group discussions, reflections/journaling, planning school dances, spirit rallies, spirit days, school and community involvement projects and the governing process of our school. As you learn how to integrate your leadership skills into your everyday life you will become more confident in your potential and your abilities as a leader.

Parents and Guardians, if your child is interested in taking Leadership for their elective please complete this form by April 21st, 2023. If you have any questions, please connect with Mr. Duran at [email protected]
