The Villela Family: Excellence in Academics & Vocation
CCS Family Since 2020
Since joining Crossroads Christian School in 2020, the Villela family has exemplified what happens when dedicated students, supportive families, and individualized mentorship come together. Through hard work, focus, and the one-on-one instruction provided by our dedicated CCS teachers, both Ethan and Olivia have achieved remarkable milestones ahead of schedule while gaining real-world career experience:
- Ethan Villela completed his entire senior year early while mastering his craft as a Butcher Apprentice at LB Select Processing & Meat Market.
- Olivia Villela is graduating as a junior at just 16 years old—completing both her junior and senior coursework—while building her career as a Salon Stylist at The Frinj Salon.
Real-World Experience. Real High School Credit.
Ethan and Olivia’s journey highlights the heart behind our Work-Based Learning (WBL) Practicum, which allows high school students to earn up to 2.0 official elective credits per year through approved employment, trade apprenticeships, and internships.
