CREATIVE COMMUNICATIONS ACAD

Creative Communications Acad is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Dolton SD 149 school district, located in Calumet City, IL with about 199 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 10 teachers, Creative Communications Acad has a student/teacher ratio of about 19:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

**Creative Communications Academy (CCA)**, located at 1650 Pulaski Rd in Calumet City, Illinois, is a specialized educational institution operating under the umbrella of School District 155. The academy is designed to serve as an alternative learning environment, focusing on providing individualized support for students who may benefit from a more tailored approach than what is offered in a traditional comprehensive high school setting. By prioritizing smaller class sizes and a structured atmosphere, the school aims to help students overcome academic or behavioral obstacles while keeping them on track toward graduation.

The academy’s curriculum places a strong emphasis on communication skills and personal development, fostering an environment where students can rebuild their confidence and academic foundations. Beyond core academic subjects, Creative Communications Academy integrates social-emotional learning to ensure students are not only meeting educational milestones but are also developing the life skills necessary for post-secondary success. By working closely with dedicated faculty and staff, students at CCA are encouraged to take ownership of their education in a supportive, community-focused environment.
