Champions Charter Academy will harvest a communications academy which will align with Fremont Unified School District’s (FUSD) mission to provide equitable opportunities to educate, challenge and inspire students of all ages, talents and ability levels, while striving to prepare each with the skills required to adapt and succeed in an ever-changing world. Confidence is the core of our program because it provides the growth mindset attitude where children believe their possibilities are endless.
Public Speaking Program: The personalized, intimate connections from our public speaking program that is all-inclusive will challenge and inspire students of all ages. It will be a 3-part program, which is broken up into three trimesters:
Character Building: Decision-making, teamwork, and how to use social-emotional skills to communicate.
Life Skills: Citizenship, safety, responsibility and emergency readiness.
Health: Nutrition, meal preparation, hygiene, cleanliness
We will also foster communication with speech and debate. Students will be exposed to grade-level standards and units in Science and Social Studies. They will learn to communicate personal experience, research and justify how their research proves their points. All of these communication strategies will reflect all learning styles: visual, musical/auditory, social, kinesthetic, logical/mathematical, linguistic and intrapersonal.
Students will engage in community-based learning where they can be good samaritans, meet role models and become global citizens. It fosters collaboration, allows for knowledge exchange, provides real-world application of skills, enhances personal connections, and can lead to positive societal impact by addressing community needs, ultimately preparing individuals to be active and engaged citizens within their community while developing valuable skills for the workforce. Students will participate in a 3-part community learning program:
CCA’s Read-to-Achieve program will execute communication with a focus on oral phonics and read-alouds. When children gain the foundational phonics skills and ability to blend letters, they are ready to practice reading. A reading session of both fiction and non-fiction will be incorporated into the school day for children to practice reading speed, accuracy and comprehension. This daily experience will challenge and inspire children of all levels because everyone will be provided with a positive space to learn and grow and be provided the instruction to make their goals attainable.
Our 2-part math program facilitates communication through critical thinking, problem-solving, and savings/spending skills. CCA will start a two-part Math program that uses hands-on techniques and real-world scenarios that are age appropriate for children to master their math skills, but be engaged at the same time. Our Financial Literacy program will incorporate age-appropriate topics such as event planning, getting a job, working with a budget, networking, sales, and developing a business.
Learning basic computer skills like typing, navigating the internet, and using productivity tools is essential in today’s digital world. Our focus is to guide children to maximize their communication and learning potentials when using social media at school and at home.
CCA’s physical education program is an additional important component of student’s lives. Children must learn to develop healthy habits and maintain them throughout their lives without lacking confidence. CCA will promote team-work, encouragement and inclusion. We will complete sports units where we use positive reinforcement. Staff will assign teams and partners to promote positive communication and to help boost motivation. Children will be assessed on improvement and participation in these three areas:
