Explore CCA's 30-Year Journey

For nearly three decades, the Consortium of Catholic Academies (CCA) has been dedicated to providing children in Washington, DC, with a transformative Catholic education rooted in faith, academic excellence, and community. Founded in 1997 through a shared commitment to serving children and families, CCA brought Catholic schools together around a common mission: to provide a high-quality education while nurturing each child's God-given gifts and potentials. The CCA has grown and evolved while remaining grounded in its Catholic identity and commitment to the whole child. Through the dedication of educators, families, supporters, and the wider Catholic community, CCA's schools have helped generations of students grow in faith, pursue academic excellence, and become compassionate members of their communities. As we celebrate 30 years in 2027, we give thanks for the people and moments that have shaped the history and move forward with hope toward the future God has in store for the CCA!
