About CCSA Foundation

CCSA Foundation's sole purpose is to support the mission of Chester Charter Scholars Academy (CCSA), an arts integrated, K-12 non-profit public charter school offering an exceptional educational option in Chester, PA. On an annual basis, the generosity of donors allows the Foundation to contribute $600,000 to CCSA that is invested directly in the operations and programs of the school.  

Every child can know their fullest potential.

Over the last decade, CCSA has made great progress from our initial K-6 school that served just over 250 students.  We now educate 695 children across thirteen grade levels, making us the only K–12 school in Chester. CCSA Foundation and the support of its donors have played an important role in making that possible.

Board of Directors

Driven by the desire to provide an outstanding school in Chester, the CCSA Foundation Board of Directors is comprised of business, community and education leaders committed to making a lasting change. Together with inspirational academic leadership, a deeply loyal base of supporters, and the CCSA Foundation staff, the board works tirelessly to fulfill CCSA’s vision.
