To the Edge and Ready to Fly...

An eagle isn't taught to fly by watching the mother's wings as she hovers over the nest. An eagle learns to fly by being pushed from the nest, being caught and pushed again until the eagle learns to fly. At CCJHS, we want to push students to the edge of learning. We want our students to fall over the edge until they are able to fly on their own...creating their own personalized path of learning based on their own data knowledge. #CCJHSEaglePride means a student owning their own learning.
