I am… the future “I didn’t know what or where I wanted to study after graduating high school. CCA was recommended to me by a friend, and I decided to enroll just to try it out and make sure I didn’t fall behind while I was deciding a path of study. I not only found out that I have a passion for teaching and helping others, but also learned many important lessons to prepare me for the real world after I graduate. CCA has been a very friendly and helpful community, and I thank them for their generosity because without them I would not be successful, nor would I be a student.” -Michael Moran
