Collegium Charter School
CCS is a tuition-free, independent public school offering families a choice for K-12 education.
In the 150 Building, Mrs. Keenan's 4th Grade math class has learned many strategies for 2-digit by 2-digit multiplication. Today they worked with a partner, and through collaboration and teamwork, they created a multiplication poster to share their learning. "Although multiplication can be difficult at times, my students always persevere and challenge themselves each day," said Mrs. Keenan. "I am so proud of their hard work and look forward to seeing them continue to shine this school year!"

Our High School Entrepreneurship students thoroughly enjoyed their field trip to NFTE's Mid-Atlantic Philadelphia Youth Entrepreneurship Summit (YES!) at the University City Science Center in Philadelphia. Students met with mentors who provided valuable feedback on their unique business ideas and inspired them on the journey from ideation to implementation! They received valuable insight on presenting themselves during an interview, were given networking tips, and had the opportunity to tell their story while pitching their lean canvas business ideas. ![]()

"The Youth Entrepreneurship Summit was an amazing experience and opportunity given to our Entrepreneurship students and teachers," said High School Teachers: Mr. Bilson, Mr. Born, and Mr. Zimmerman. "Entrepreneurship is an elective class where students learn what it takes to create and start a business through a hands-on, semester-long project to create and pitch their business ideas. It was great to see students begin to fully invest in developing their business skills and ideas with the help of the volunteer mentors. Most impactful was seeing more introverted students finally gain the confidence to speak about their thoughts and feelings about the business world and the topics we discussed in class. I also believe the teachers got just as much out of the experience as the students, creating a renewed excitement and enthusiasm for the entrepreneurship class."
