The CCA is committed to ensuring students receive the high-quality education they deserve in a safe and supportive environment.

Through administrative, curricular and financial support, we make it possible for principals and teachers to focus on the truly important work at hand; providing an outstanding education to more than 800 students of all faiths.

At the Consortium of Catholic Academies we believe:

• Education is a collaborative responsibility. Success requires the commitment and participation of the Archdiocese, executive leadership of the Consortium of Catholic Academies as well as pastors, principals, staff, family and community.


• All children can learn. Consortium of Catholic Academies schools combines high expectations with the capacity to identify and develop the unique talents and strengths of each student.


• Good teachers are essential. They must be professionally qualified, well supported and personally capable of helping the whole child to develop.


• Consortium schools are Catholic schools. Integration of the faith through curriculum, and implementation by faculty and staff, will inspire students to reach their academic and personal potential.


• Learning facilities must be efficient, functional, and safe and secure and respect the dignity of each student.


• The long term sustainability of the Consortium of Catholic Academies schools will be achieved by budgets that reflect the mission and are multi-year in scope, transparent and results-oriented.


• Financial assistance serves to optimize the availability of Catholic education.

The Consortium of Catholic Academies (CCA) is a non-profit organization supporting students of four inner-city Catholic elementary schools in the Archdiocese of Washington.
