This school is the best. I've been here since 2nd grade through 7th grade and my experience here did not disappoint at all. The students here are mostly well behaved, the teachers here are cool and they teach well. Throughout my experience here, it was really easy to find friends and people I could interact too. They were nice and I have not seen one case of bullying here but that is just me. I like how when you switch over to vine street you get a iPad instead of chromebooks where normal public schools use chromebooks. The iPads were easy to use and they gave you a case which includes a keyboard where you can type. This school is the best and I recommend to attend it

Good caring teachers are overwhelmed by misbehaving students and large classes in tight quarters. The anti-bullying policy is a joke. When kids go through the hallways to change classes, they get slammed into lockers by bullies. When teachers have their head turned, kids have things knocked off thei...

My child has attended PPACS for a few years now. From an arts and academics standpoint, it is great. Their performances are top notch, and the opportunity to perform in world-class spaces like the Kimmel Center is incredible. I also appreciate the use of technology in relation to their academics.
