I am not a parent but a grandparent of a child who goes to Parkway Christian Academy and I am thankful that my daughter in law allowed me to help decide on where she should go to school. After much research and interaction from faculty at PCA we felt this is the right place for our grandchildren. PCA has been a blessing to our family and my granddaughter is thriving beautifully in this institution. They have the best teachers and the best curriculum and they teach only what is necessary to learn hence math, english, science, social studies, ect. They teach in an unbiased manner and they do not incorporate their personal feelings into their teaching which is what we were looking for. Thank you Parkway Christian Academy!!!

Parkway has been a blessing to our family for the last three years. We have seen our kids excel academically, socially, and spiritually!! The teachers and staff create an environment that we feel safe having our children a part of. Parkway feels more like a family than a school campus and we look forward to the growth to come with the school and our children in the years to come. We very highly recommend Parkway Christian Academy!

So thankful my son is going to Parkway! Great teachers and staff. Our beliefs and values are upheld here and the teachers are patient and encouraging unlike our experience with his last middle school. My son is learning about God and His Word, I couldn't be happier!
