About CCE

A Far + Wise Initiative

Far + Wise’s vision is to ensure that all students, regardless of economic means, can achieve their career goals and to foster a future where potential meets opportunity in our thriving community. 

Through year-round programs like camps, classes, internships, and apprenticeships, we guide students on a journey of exploration and development. We bridge the gap between students and businesses, to foster successful job placement.

Go Far, Go Wise

We support all pathways to success

Far + Wise provides academic support and experiential education for students from early elementary through high school and beyond, and by removing financial and other barriers, ensures that all students can achieve their life, education, and career goals.
