PMCA is a Christ-centered school, desiring in all ways to bring glory to God as students are taught that Jesus is Lord of all of life.  Teaching the joy of loving God as we challenge students through a worldview based on the Bible is a focal point of our program.

Our elementary program is staffed with faculty who are professionals with expertise in early childhood development and who embrace their calling to instruct children with a sense of joy and anticipation.  Faculty members seek to identify the individual strengths of each student and welcome communication from parents as the primary teachers to partner together in bringing a joy-filled, wise, and wonderful education to God’s children in an effort to complement godly parenting in the home.

The basic skills of Bible, mathematics, reading and writing form the core of the elementary program.  Textbooks are used in conjunction with manipulatives, games and hands-on experiences to promote mastery.  Students learn problem solving techniques and reading strategies and are challenged to express themselves clearly in written language.  The program of instruction is rounded out through the inclusion of specials instruction in foreign language, music, band, Physical education, Art, Library and computer skills.  The historically rich area in which we live permits our programming to extend through field trips and involvement to historic and community destinations.
