2026 Strategic Plan, Mission, and Vision
For nearly three decades, Chester Community Charter School has proudly served the children and families of Chester and the surrounding community. As a tuition-free public charter school serving scholars in kindergarten through eighth grade, we are committed to providing a safe, caring, and academically challenging environment where every child can learn, grow, and succeed.
Our strategic plan, Building Tomorrow Together, reflects our belief that the future of our scholars, families, school, and community is interconnected. We believe that exceptional people deliver exceptional instruction, creating an exceptional student experience that prepares our scholars to become successful graduates, engaged citizens, and future leaders.
At CCCS, education extends beyond the classroom. In addition to building strong academic foundations, we support the development of the whole child by fostering confidence, character, creativity, resilience, and a sense of responsibility. Through high-quality instruction, individualized support, innovative learning opportunities, and meaningful relationships, we prepare scholars for success in high school, college, careers, and life.
Our school community is guided by our LIONS values:
- Learning: We approach every day with curiosity and a commitment to growth.
- Innovation: We embrace new ideas and prepare scholars for a changing world.
- Ownership: We take responsibility for our actions, choices, and results.
- Nobility: We lead with integrity, respect, courage, and compassion.
- Service: We use our talents to strengthen our school and community.
Families are essential partners in our work. We value open communication, meaningful engagement, and shared responsibility for every scholar’s success. Together with our families, staff, and community partners, we are creating schools where scholars feel safe, supported, known, and inspired to reach their full potential.
At Chester Community Charter School, we are honoring a proud legacy while building an even stronger future—one scholar, one family, and one community at a time.
Together, we are CCCS. Together, we are Building Tomorrow Together.
