I can't say enough positive things about my family's experience with this school. Our three daughters have been at PMCS through its various stages, including a period of transition a few years ago. I'm happy to say the last couple years have been truly amazing, with such talented, dedicated and creative administration and teachers and staff who pay close attention to every student, valuing each as an individual and expecting every child to succeed. Even during the rough period our kids had extraordinary teachers -- couldn't have asked for better. Every time parents around us gripe about their school I feel grateful that my kids have landed in such a caring and positive place.

I attended this school from Kindergarten to 4th grade. By far the best school in Philadelphia. I enjoyed coming to school everyday and was very grateful of the staff at the school because they definitely made school fun to attend. I also substituted for the secretary and it was kind blowing to be there and to interact with people that was working there while I attended.

My daughter is a kindergartner at Patterson . Last week someone posed as her grandfather trying to pick her up . Although they didn't allow her to go with the person , I WAS NOT NOTIFIED !!! My child's daycare told me about the situation since they're the ones that pick her up from school ! The following day I went to the office for information and the lady BARBERA as well as The principle basically said they couldn't do anything ! She couldn't remember not one little detail about the person that allegedly claimed they were her grandfather, not what they looked like , the name on their id since she claimed they have her The id to look at NOTHING ! They simply shrugged they're shoulders at me as if I was overreacting ! This was an attempted abduction !! I am currently seeking higher authorities because I WILL NOT LET THIS GO !! Horrible school !!!!

My experience with this school and the principal are exceptional and is one of excellence.

As a parent/guardian of a student at Greater Hope Christian Academy I have thanked The Master many many times for enabling my grandson to go to this school.
