Virtual Cohort
About our Virtual Cohort
We are launched our very first Virtual Cohort in 2021, giving more people in more places the opportunity to experience CLA.
The virtual cohort is for those who do not live in a region where CLA already operates. People who live in a region where CLA operates may participate in the Virtual Cohort (given extenuating circumstances), however, those who do not have a CLA cohort in their region are prioritized in the selection process.
Our Virtual Cohort is 100% online. It is facilitated by Marselys Lucero, our virtual coordinator.

Who is a leader that inspires you?
There are so many! But one leader that inspires me is my good friend and colleague, Edwin Ortiz at Regis High School. In our three years working together, Edwin always kept students and their welfare as his main focus and showed selfless leadership, even in the midst of a pandemic.
