A documentary about the Charleston Development Academy (CDA) will be screened on Feb. 5 at 6 p.m. at Marriott Hotel, 170 Lockwood Blvd. The movie follows steps taken by Director Cecelia Gordon Rogers as she aimed for smaller classroom sizes and specialized teaching styles.
“My whole purpose is to emulate what I have been given,” Rogers in a written statement. “Anybody can be successful if they have the right environment to learn in.”
The film shows how the CDA demonstrated progress in improving student achievement, high levels of parent satisfaction, and the management and leadership necessary to create a viable charter school that other schools can emulate.
