City Center Academy

What Kind of Place is City Center Academy?

City Center Academy is a place where students prepare for college, guided by experienced faculty. We are committed to an academic program strong in the foundational core courses needed to prepare for college and life-long learning.

It is a place where students can grow. Values such as diligence, faithfulness, respect, honesty, justice and mercy are not just talked about, but are demonstrated. Our Christian perspective is taught and modeled by our faculty. Students are encouraged to think and ask questions about a life of faith that is relevant to their future, their community, and the world.

At City Center Academy, you can find a place to belong. Every student is valued and challenged to succeed.  Small class sizes ensure individual attention and mentor groups provide additional opportunities to ask questions and receive support. Tuition assistance and merit scholarships are building a growing and talented student body.

CCA is a place to succeed. 100% of CCA students are accepted to a college of their choice. Our SAT scores are higher than the average of all Philadelphia charter schools, and some of our students even earn college credit before graduation. Recent graduates are currently attending the University of Pennsylvania, Wheaton College, The University of the Sciences at Philadelphia, Nyack College, Stony Brook University, Virginia State University, and many more.

City Center Academy is also a place to enjoy. Our location in Center City Philadelphia provides access to the best educational and cultural opportunities. The safe location and community atmosphere provides an environment where our students can thrive. A variety of electives in the arts, athletic programs, and other activities enrich students’ lives.

For more than 25 years, City Center Academy has provided the kind of high school experience that many students are seeking. CCA could be a place for you!
