Greetings,

I feel extremely blessed to be the principal of a school with such amazing students, motivated and dedicated staff, and parents who work with us to create an environment that facilitates student learning and faith formation. CCA is a Pre-School through 8^th Grade Catholic School where our faculty and staff are highly committed to providing the most rewarding education possible while utilizing a wide variety of innovative and collaborative methods and activities. At this time of so much uncertainty, you can be certain that CCA will provide your child with a strong foundation and a place to call, “HOME.”
Founded in 2012, as the only Diocesan Elementary School in the Diocese of Orange, our mission is:
The teachers, staff, and parents of Christ Cathedral Academy are dedicated to providing for the formation of the whole child; spiritually, morally, physically, emotionally, and academically. We embrace the charisms of the Dominican Sisters of Mission San Jose...
With our minds, we learn,
With our hearts, we pray,
With our hands we serve,
With our voice, we preach the good news.
The commitment to academic excellence is evidenced across the campus, as well as our commitment to the health and safety of our CCA community. Our highly qualified teachers utilize various teaching strategies and practice differentiated instruction to meet the needs of all students. A well-developed curriculum enables our students to excel in all academic areas. Academy students have been recognized for their writing, singing, art, and sports excellence.
As the only Diocesan Elementary School in the Diocese of Orange, we work closely with Father Bao, the Rector of Christ Cathedral, and the Department of Catholic Schools to ensure an exemplary school for students. Our students attend weekly Mass in the Cathedral. Second-grade sacramental preparation is embedded in their school day, and students receive their Sacraments at Christ Cathedral. We strive to foster a strong academic and faith-filled child who will go out and make this world a better place.
Thank you for your interest in our school. I invite you to explore our new website to see what makes the Academy such a wonderful place to learn and grow. Please contact the front office at (714) 663-2330 to schedule a tour and learn more about our incredible school, and discover the power of a strong Catholic Education.

Blessings,

Mrs. Tapia
