Providence Christian Academy is committed to equipping the next generation to
stand strong and firm in their faith. As a learning community, we encourage
each student’s spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social, and physical growth
by applying Biblical truth in the context of real life. Because true learning
begins by knowing God, our students learn that all truth is God’s truth through
each academic discipline. As the threads of truth are woven into a student’s
mind on a daily basis, those foundational principles can become the very fabric
of his or her life. At that point, mere academic curriculum is transformed into
a solid belief system based on a Biblical worldview.
Our curriculum is challenging, exploratory, and integrative from the
kindergarten level, through the senior year of high school. The faculty is
careful to provide an environment suitable to meet the needs of every student
at each level.
A warm, accepting atmosphere, with a child-centered approach to academics,
social growth, emotional maturity, and spiritual development allow elementary
age students to reach their full potential in the classroom. A multi-sensory
approach to teaching phonics, reading, language, and spelling is the
cornerstone of the early childhood program. In addition, students enjoy the
hands-on, age/developmentally appropriate curriculum, rich in language
experience, and foundational skills that make school “a fun place to be.” This
approach also meets a wide range of learning styles of young children.
Once skills are mastered in the elementary, students move into a college
preparatory high school program that is taught within the framework of a
Christian world and life view. A challenging and demanding curriculum includes
Advanced Placement and Honors courses. In the National Merit Scholarship
Competition, Providence students repeatedly earn status as Commended Students
and National Merit Scholars.
