PCA is a ministry of Parkridge Church, reaching children 2yrs old through 9th grade. PCA seeks to meet students’ individual needs through excellent education while also placing an emphasis on equipping students with skills and knowledge to change the world for Christ. In Proverbs 22:6 it states “Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.” It is our desire to partner with parents in the development of students spiritually, academically, and socially, so that they will think from a biblical worldview as they launch into God’s plan and purpose for their lives.
