Career Connections Charter High School, or CCCHS, was a charter high school in the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States, that focused on preparing students for their careers. It used methods such as mentoring, career exploration classes, career infusion into traditional classes, and soft-skill building to educate and train students for the world of careers. The culmination of the training happens during the senior year when students have the choice to spend three days a week at an internship or be dually-enrolled at a local college.[1]
According to former C.O.O., Dr. Brian White, at CCCHS "students are nurtured in small classes and in a safe environment emphasizing success for all. Success may be defined differently by students and families, but for all it includes graduation from high school with the necessary skills to pursue a college, post-secondary or career path."[2]
