About the School
Carolina Community Academy, designed as a school within North Elementary School, integrates evidence-based practices and innovative approaches, improved and integrated curriculum, social-emotional learning, and robust wraparound services. CCA launched in August 2022 and is the ninth and final North Carolina school to open in accordance to North Carolina House Bill 1030.
Enrollment
Kindergarten students entering North Elementary are automatically enrolled in the Carolina Community Academy — no additional registration is required beyond standard kindergarten enrollment. After completing second grade at CCA, students transition back to North Elementary and continue in Person County Schools for grades 3–5. This transition is seamless and does not require any additional paperwork from families. For enrollment support, contact us.
Academics
Carolina Community Academy takes a holistic, collaborative, strengths-based, and innovative approach to education. While curriculum centers around themes from the North Carolina Standards, students also learn essential skills like emotional regulation, anger management, friendship skills, and problem-solving. In addition to teachers, counselors and social workers support students with small group and individual support for more focused instruction and guidance.
Students and Families
Carolina Community Academy provides several resources to support its students and their families. Students have access to comprehensive wraparound services and monthly enrichment experiences on the UNC-Chapel Hill campus. At North Elementary, students and families receive support from full-time school professionals.
