New Life with Crown Ridge Academy







It has been three years and three months since I posted in the Chronicles. During that span of time, Ces and started a new life from retirement. We founded Crown Ridge Academy, a charter high school in the City of San Bernardino, CA. To date, the school is in its second year of operation with 160 students, 10 teachers, and four administrative staff members.
Its high school curriculum is enriched with special emphasis on engineering and biomedical science elective programs. The Academy inculcates in the minds of students, parents and staff that "Success is the only option." Its mission is to graduate every enrolled student from high school, become productive members of the community and proceed to college. To ensure this success, the Academy maintains small classes, provides individualized instruction and offers credit recovery.
The Academic Program Assistance (APA), Peers Always Learning System (PALS) and After-School Assistance Program (ASAP) are three programs that augment concerted classroom instruction and further ensures success at Crown Ridge Academy.
The old adage, "To see is to believe" applies here. Do feel free to visit the school any school day and see for yourself how the Academy operates. You may also check out http://crownridgeacademy.com.
