The Lord's Provision

It has now been a little over a year since the first meetings took place regarding opening a classical Christian school in Little Rock. In that time, we have seen PCA change from just an idea into an actual school with teachers, curriculum, enrolled students and a location for the 2010-11 school year. What an opportunity this has been to join in the work of the Lord! What a blessing it has been to those of us thus employed!

It is worth mentioning that the thing most tangible to me throughout this entire process has been the calm undergirding of all of our efforts by our Savior, Jesus Christ. No doubt there have been moments that I have felt unsteady and even a bit shaken by seemingly insurmountable obstacles, but those disruptions have been experienced as one knowing that he was standing on solid rock, not lost at sea.

Surely there are challenges yet to come, and no man knows what a day may bring. But it is good to pause and give thanks: to God for all He has done thus far, to God for all He continues to do, and to God for all He still might do with classical Christian education through PCA in Little Rock. To Him be the glory!

PCA Announces School Location

We are very excited to announce that we have finalized our location for the 2010-11 school year!

The congregation of Rose Hill Church of the Nazarene has graciously agreed to allow PCA to rent classroom and extracurricular space for next year. The facilities and location of Rose Hill seem to be a perfect fit for PCA's first year, and we pray that it will be a blessing to our students and families.

Rose Hill Church of the Nazarene is conveniently located at 11001 Kanis Road – just west of the Shackleford Rd. and Kanis Rd. intersection.

Teacher Announcement

Pinnacle Classical Academy is pleased to announce the hiring of the teaching team for the coming 2010-11 school year. We give thanks to God for His providence in this decision and anticipate great things from these remarkable young women.

Those familiar with the school already will need no introduction to Holley Peters who will serve in the dual role of Kindergarten/Lower Elementary teacher as well as Head Administrator. Holley attended Bryan College where she earned a B.A. in English Literature. Since graduating college, she has worked as a high school English teacher, worldview teacher and most recently as PCA's Director of Development. Having received a classical Christian education herself from Westminster Academy in Memphis, TN, Holley is passionate about this model of education, and PCA is thrilled to have her on board as we open this Fall.

Maria Copas joins the school as its Upper Elementary teacher having recently relocated from Chicago, IL where she obtained a Masters in Historical/Systematic Theology from Wheaton Graduate School. She has a B.A. in Theology and Bible from Moody Bible Institute, and is also proficient in Latin and Greek. A very short conversation with Maria will reveal to you her deep love of the classical model and her desire to serve children by leading them through a Christ-centered education.

Please join PCA in welcoming Holley and Maria!
