Welcome to Providence Christian Academy! I am delighted that you have taken an interest in our school, and I am confident that PCA can offer your child the best Christian education in the area. In just two years, we have more than doubled in size, going from roughly 30 to 80 students. It has been our steadfast commitment to our mission and vision that has brought us here.

 

With a background in science, I have spent over 15 years in various leadership roles in dentistry, medicine, and the local community.  This experience has been invaluable to me in starting this school.

 

Being a father of three children, and not contented with the public schools, I set out to create a school with not only Christian values but high academic standards. I envisioned a school not only of high academic excellence but also with ethical values and athletic endeavors. But most importantly, I wanted to start a school of joy, with students, faculty, and parents who participate in the collaborative mission to create lifelong learners. That translates to students who have the advantages of critical thinking, personal integrity, and sound moral standards that are grounded in the principles of the Bible.

 

Our school is shaping the foundations of young minds but also will impact the course of their future and consequently the future of the world. Education is the pivotal force that ignites understanding, transforms lives, and paves the way for a purpose-driven existence. We embrace these values and implement them through academic pedagogy and athletics.

 

I hope you find this helpful and informative. At the same time, there is no substitute for visiting our campus and seeing our teachers and students in action. We welcome you to visit Providence Christian Academy sometime soon.
