I have been at Pinnacle since 2012 when the school first started. I have had an overall good experience as the school has continued to grow. I would love for Pinnacle to have a better sports program as I have had a wonderful time playing for multiple sports teams here. They are currently renovating the gym so I hope that will provide a better experience in the athletics department. Over all I have been able to have fun while attending Pinnacle Classical Academy.

I love PCA. The experience, environment, and feel of the school are much better than what I experienced at other public schools in my area. I enjoy going there and hope to be a good influence on the other kids that go there also. The way that the school operates and functions is very smooth and very beneficial to the children and there experience in school. It has a small-town feel with the education quality of a private school but you don't have to pay tuition.

Pinnacle Classical Academy is a great school for your children to challenge their academic skills. They will be surrounded by great teachers and faculty members. I will highly recommend this school.

We moved from Vermont just to make sure that our daughter got to start kindergarten at PCA. Now, she is thriving in first grade, and we are looking forward to the next decade of wonderful academics and amazing faculty and staff that PCA offers. Not only are the academics beyond compare, but the facu...

My children have flourished here and they love it. The students are challenged to set goals and do their best daily. The teachers and administration are supportive and they they bring out the best in every student. The kids here work very hard, no doubt, but they are better for it.
