Emily is amazing! She is a wealth of knowledge and I don't know how she did it all. You had a question- she would provide you with all the information including emails, links, and examples-more than you could ever imagine but very much needed. Our meetings were a blast and helped us all along our "first" school year!

I was supposed to be placed with someone else but they backed out last minute. Turns out this was the best thing that could have possibly happened. Heather not only showed me the ropes of CCA, but she welcomed me with open arms and became a mentor & friend. Any questions I have, whether it's CCA or life related she always has an answer/advice. Heather made my first year at CCA a blast and so much more manageable. SOOO thankful for her! :)

Jeff has been absolutely AWESOME to work with since I started mid-year last school year. From his skate store to his Star Wars collection he's one of the coolest teachers I've gotten to know! I cannot thank him enough for always providing the perfect amount of guidance - never over bearing but always there when you need him! I wouldn't have had the smooth transition into online education that I did if it wasn't for Jeff's guidance and support! :)

Our mentor-mentee group has become a little family, and we would follow our mentor, Tim Aney, (nearly) anywhere he leads. His calm, So Cal demeanor was exactly what we needed to counteract the stress of starting new here at CCA. I would have been like an orphan penguin chick out in the cold without his guidance.
