Presented by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, the Mid-Atlantic Emmy Awards, recognize excellence in television and digital media across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. The award was presented in the “Education/Schools – Short Form” category at the Mid-Atlantic Emmy Awards ceremony in Philadelphia.
Based in Harrisburg, CCA is a K-12 public cyber charter school, serving more than 35,000 students across Pennsylvania.
“This recognition is a tremendous honor and a testament to the hard work, creativity, and innovation of our entire video production and curriculum teams,” Thomas D. Longenecker, CCA president and CEO, said in a statement. “Because our learning program is delivered online, engaging and high-quality videos are essential for sparking curiosity and supporting student success. Winning an Emmy validates that we are delivering an exceptional, world-class learning experience.”
According to a release, CCA’s in-house video production team collaborates closely with educators to create thousands of interactive lessons and videos designed to bring learning to life. The award-winning video “Themes in Shadows: Leitmotif” exemplifies the school’s commitment to providing students with engaging, real-world educational experiences.
“This is more than just a win for CCA — it’s a win for our students,” added Longenecker. “When students see content that excites them, they stay engaged, motivated, and ready to learn.”
