We have had kids at PPA since 2018 and have had a very positive experience. I love that my kids get up and move frequently during the day which helps keep their mind engaged during the academic classes. My oldest has been identified as gifted and the middle school provides opportunities for him to be challenged academically while still providing a path for his love of dance.
