Overall the school is awesome if you are looking for a smaller private school. The teachers and administration are amazing and really do care for the students. The school is working out a few things such as policies and rules. As a student it can be difficult to get your ideas to happen, but they do try most of the time. I would recommend the school to my friends!
PCA as a school left me with a lot of mixed emotions. Unfortunately, I can't tell you how many issues I experienced while I was attending the school.A lot of the problems were just simply unfair to my family and there was not a lot of room for grace. To summarize for you my family has been with PCA for about fifteen to twenty years about. Every year there has not been an issue with my family and the school. On the other hand, I will always have a special place in my heart for a lot of the teachers there. The teachers can be very down to earth while still remaining professional about the topics being taught. Personally, I feel like now I could go back and talk to most teachers as if they were still a close friend. Furthermore, The sports were great. Tough, definitely because I have tendinitis in both hips and knees so watch your knees and stuff. But its up to you to decided if the annoying unfairness is out weighed by the awesome friendships.

I have recently attended Palmetto Christina School and I have a lot of experience in different situations. Academically, this school does provide a very rigorous form of education that readily prepares kids for college. However the brat mentality has definitely shown through in my opinion. Kids at this school very rarely understand people with other experience and often shun these people out of social groups. There is a very fine line here between those who have attend the school there whole lives and those who have not. I believe that This school definitely equips students with the knowledge to excel academically, but socially I do not agree with the fact that these kids will connect with a college setting where they haven’t known the same people and community there entire lives.
