Community Council Learning Academy (CCLA) provides specialized educational programs for children and youth ages 5–21 who face educational or behavioral challenges. Our alternative special education setting (ASES) works closely with school districts and charter schools to provide therapeutic interventions that support students’ academic and emotional growth without disrupting their education. Each student has an individualized education plan (IEP) tailored to their unique needs, with the majority of students receiving an emotionally disturbed diagnosis.

​

Our Emotional Support (ES) classrooms focus on fostering a safe, supportive learning environment where students can develop strengths, build confidence, and become lifelong learners. Through research-based approaches such as the RE-ED philosophy and the Circle of Courage, our dedicated staff guide students in restructuring academic and emotional challenges, promoting positive interactions with peers and the wider community, and preparing them to thrive in school and beyond.
