Less than 3 months to go...

With school beginning in less than three months, PCA is getting more excited each day as we anticipate our fall opening! In the last couple of months several exciting things have been happening, and we wanted to give you a brief update on a few of these:

1) Our Location: The congregation of Rose Hill Church of the Nazarene has expressed a willingness to allow PCA to rent a portion of their facility for our school home. Currently, PCA is awaiting a Conditional Use Permit from the city of Little Rock, which will likely be granted on June 3rd. There are a few other logistics to sort out, as well, but we anticipate each of these details working out in due time. We are very grateful for the blessing of this wonderful facility. Rose Hill Church of the Nazarene is located at 11001 Kanis Rd. in Little Rock.
2) Our Curriculum: The PCA curriculum committee has selected the curriculum for each subject for next year, and has made wonderful choices! We are very excited about what each student will be learning. If you are interested in knowing the titles of specific curriculum, please contact us and we'll fill you in on the details.
3) Student Uniforms: We have chosen our student uniforms for next year. We will use Lands' End as our uniform supply company, and we think that the uniforms will serve our families, students, and school very well next year. If you would like specific details about uniform guidelines, please contact us and we'll send you more information.
4) School Day Hours: The PCA school day will begin at 8:15am and will run until 2:30pm for full day students (grades 2 - 5). Half day students (K and 1st) will be dismissed at 12:30pm.
5) Fundraising: PCA has recently launched a small fundraising campaign in hopes of establishing some additional funding for the upcoming year. We especially hope to establish a tuition assistance fund so that we can assist interested, committed families who have financial need. If you are interested in giving to the PCA General Fund or the Tuition Assistance Fund, please contact us. We would love to talk with you personally.
6) New Website: PCA is in the midst of developing a full website in order to better serve the needs of the school and the Little Rock community. We hope to launch our new website within the next month. Our web address will remain the same.

We are continually amazed at God's provision for PCA, and we are so thankful for His grace and mercy to us. There are certainly many more details we could share with you, but we wanted to take a moment to share some of the most recent highlights. We hope to have another meeting over the summer - please let us know if you would like to be added to our mailing list.

PCA is still accepting student applications - please contact us if you would like to receive an application for your child.

Cottage Meeting this Thursday, May 6th

PCA's next Cottage Meeting will be this Thursday, May 6th, at 7:30pm. We will meet in the home of Dave and Mary Peery (1308 Lansing Street, 72223). We will be providing updates on our location, curriculum, student uniforms, and our faculty search. Joseph Bailey will also be leading a discussion of the article "An Invitation to the Pain of Learning" by Mortimer Adler.
