I have inquired to her teachers regarding what my daughter has told me as strick rules & most of the time I have realized the rules are there for a reason. Yes as with all schools there are teachers who are very cool but on the whole most are caring & nuturing.

I am a student at PCA, and although it is a very strict school, I have found that I love it. I don't agree with some of their rules, but you will never find a school that is perfect.

I cannot say enough about this school, it is simply fantastic. True, there are no parent volunteers, but there is parent involvement in other ways. We as parents always know what is going on.

this school is absolutely unbelievable! I've often wondered on these reviews if it was somone from the school putting in the kudos! But I am a real parent.

They have strict rules but it's worth it and the price of the school was cheaper than what I paid for daycare on a military base. My child was reading in Pre-K and writing in cursive. I just can't say enough about the school. It will surpass the dreams you have for your child. A seed will be planted. Read less
