Chattanooga Charter School of Excellence (CCSE) delivers high quality, rigorous teaching and learning through single gender classrooms. Research has shown that offering single-gender classes is an effective response to school-level data that shows achievement gaps between males and females. This approach has also proven an effective choice option for parents whose children are not achieving at exp
ected levels. In addition to delivering a curriculum that is aligned to Tennessee State Standards, CCSE utilizes the Core Knowledge curriculum. The Core Knowledge curriculum is a content-rich and rigorous liberal arts course of study in which all children are expected to learn geography, world and American history, mathematics, science, language arts, art, music, and foreign languages. Learn more about the Core Knowledge Curriculum at www.coreknowledge.org/the-k-8-sequence. Due to overwhelming parental satisfaction and demand, CCSE expanded its innovative education choice options beginning the 2015-2016 through the addition of a second campus which will provide for an educational continuum to students from grades K-8. The leadership, faculty, and staff of CCSE are energetic, dedicated, and caring professionals who possess a genuine commitment to the success of all students regardless of ethnicity, race, or family income level.
