CTA changed my life 15 years ago and gave me the foundation to explore the world on my own terms. I was failing all my classes and miserable at public school, but was on honor roll within months at CTA. It turned out I just needed my own space and a bunch of time outdoors. Some of my best memories to this day happened at CTA and on the many trips we took.

People I know from the school are still like family to me and my only regret is that I’m not able to visit more. If you’re about to become a student here, just give the place a chance! Your life is about to be way more interesting, and you’re gonna meet some of the best people you will ever find!
