About Us

Cardinal Carter Academy for the Arts (CCAA) first opened its doors in 1990. Since that time, CCAA has earned a reputation for excellence in Arts-based education.

CCAA is an "arts-magnet" school offering a challenging and balanced curriculum in both the Arts and Academic subjects for students from Grade 7 to 12. In our caring, Catholic environment, artistically talented young people are given a unique opportunity to develop their creative and personal potential to the fullest while pursuing excellence in their academic studies in a vibrant and stimulating setting.

CCAA offers a holistic educational approach dedicated to providing opportunities for all students that empower them to reach their full potential and challenge them to be responsible stewards of their talents.
