Together We Grow
Not all of our students are Greek. Studies continually show that learning a foreign language contributes to academic success. PCA offers not only early foreign language study, but also a Christian-based, solid educational experience for all.
OUR MISSION
To provide students with the highest quality elementary education with strong academic, spiritual, and cultural foundations rooted in Orthodoxy and Hellenism.
