Who We Are
Welcome to CWC Hollywood!
We are a free, public charter elementary school with a purposefully diverse student body. We are located in the heart of Hollywood and we serve students across LA. We opened our doors in 2010, and are currently serving grades TK-5. We provide a holistic education, filled with joy, project-based learning, rigorous academics, the arts, sports and more. Our program is particularly strong in developing students’ social emotional development across lines of difference, preparing our students to emerge as a new generation of leaders – as trailblazers who are ready to tackle the future challenges in our world.
