The academics are great, but some of the administration's decisions are questionable. Agree or be fired when it comes to being a teacher. The strength in the Biblical teaching is good.
PA has been a fantastic investment for my child’s education. His growth(both spiritual and educational) has continued to impress me each year he is enrolled. Add the fine arts program to that and PA just can’t be beat. I’m beyond thankful that my child has the opportunity to a Classical Christian education in my hometown. I know he will be well prepared for college and ready to take on the world with a biblical worldview.
I love the variety of opportunities that my children enjoy while learning in a smaller environment where they are personally known by teachers who care for them.
Providence provides a classical education that has been helpful in my college career thus far. Teachers, staff, and administration have a heart for students and education. The shortcomings of the school are seen in the science department, which could use an update.
i like the way the school prepares students for college, since it is so academically inclined it is very stressful but a good school
Providence Academy's staff truly cares and provides for their students; they always do their best to help prepare them for college and the years ahead. Providence's academics are outstanding; though the options for honors and AP classes are limited, the ones they do have are outstanding.
Providence Academy has a great team of caring and highly skilled faculty and administrators. They are excellent at communicating what the purpose of the school is and the desire to assist parents in following God‘s call to make sure their children are trained up with a good education and prepared to impact their world. The leadership are good stewards of the finances entrusted to them - and they work hard to provide scholarships for those who might not be able to afford a quality, private Christian education. Sadly, not all children and teens whi are raised in Christian homes live out Christian moral principles just because they attend a private Christian school. That is to be expected, but when behavior problems do arise the leaders do attempt to deal with issues in an objective and biblical manner. I find them compassionate and ready to partner with parents and the journey of K – 12 education.
Providence has provided me a great education so far. It’s challenging but I also feel like my teachers care. I wish we had more support for the athletic programs and extracurricular clubs
Providence Academy was the best decision I could have ever had made for me. This school instilled in me a life-long love of learning and a desire to always compete with my classmates. This is an academically rigorous school and requires much dedication and work, however, the benefits of the program and of growing up in a Christian environment can never be counted.
As you get closer to senior year, you have more course options. All of the classes are wonderful and you can take a lot away from them if you pay attention and do your homework. The workload isn't that bad, it's just a matter of getting it done.
Everyone is your guidance counselor. We don't have buses, so you either have to drive or carpool. The building is really clean, and they're adding onto the science and library wing this year.
Food is ordered from Arby's, Chick-fil-A, Barbaritos, Misaki's, Pizza Inn, and Fazoli's. Other than that, you bring your own lunch.
This school is the best way to be rooted in Christ through wonderful teachers, classes, classmates, and activities. All the classes have loving relationships with each other, and teachers are willing to be helpful at any time. The quality of education is astounding, and I would choose to start over all the way from Kindergarten if I had to.
We have cross country, soccer, baseball, basketball, and volleyball. All the facilities are great, and the whole school is very supportive of the teams. For guys who want to play football, there's a homeschool team one of the teachers started. Phys. Ed. is required until 9th grade, but after that the only real way to be physically active at school is to play sports.
we honestly have the most caring, intelligent, hard working teachers anywhere!!!!!!!
Most of the Teachers are the best and will help you in any way possible. the curriculum is hard and the work losd is heavy but it prepares you for college.
The parents are very involved! The building is newer so the everything is up to date. Lots of college prep courses. Updated technology and lots of access to tutoring!
