(CCCA/Early College High School)
Columbus Career and College Academy (CCCA) serves students through a partnership between Southeastern Community College (SCC) and Columbus County Schools. CCCA is an innovative public high school seeking to expand students’ opportunities for education through high quality instructional programs. Students begin their high school careers at the Fair Bluff campus. Students then have an opportunity to move to SCC’s campus to complete a college transfer associates degree or a technical career degree. CCCA is operated by Columbus County Schools in partnership with the college. CCCA Early College graduates leave with a high school diploma and an associate degree at no cost to the student. The entire curriculum is designed to be completed in five years. Columbus County students should talk to their high school counselors about this amazing opportunity.
