PCA Eagles Are Thankful To Be Back In School!

After 5 months of silence, the halls of PCA are once again filled with the laughter and chatter of PCA students and staff. With masks on and "smiling eyes", students and staff have taken their temporary new normal in stride, matching masks to their uniforms and outfits, staying the standard distance apart, and overall being thankful for the opportunity to be back in the halls. 

Third grade teacher, Mrs. Andrews said, "I have never been so happy to be back at school! The mask is definitely worth it, and my students have done an amazing job!" 

While Upper School English teacher Vicki Blackstone said, "One of the most patriotic things we, teachers and students, can do is return to school. We might be Eagles, but right now, we are also patriots!" 

Students are just as excited about being back in person. Third grader, Hunter Tisdale said, "the best part about being back is being with my friends and not having to do virtual learning!" 

 When asked how she felt about starting her senior year in a mask, senior Fei Fleury said, "Starting the school year has been very different and I had mixed feelings about coming in. I was both excited and nervous trying to do school in masks and being extra cautious with germs, but I am very happy to be back in person! To be able to see all my friends and teachers has been the best part and I can't wait to see how this school year is going to play out!"

Whether it's from home via virtual learning or in physical seats, it is nice to have the PCA Eagles back in the nest.

Excitement was in the air as our preschool students enjoyed their first day of school! Thank you parents for taking the new precautionary steps before entering our building. Our preschoolers enjoyed learning their new routines with teachers and classmates. Some fun time on the playground and an introduction to music class were included in their first day as well. PCA Preschool was pleased to welcome 135 students into its classrooms ranging from 18-month-olds to 4-year-olds. Each year is designed as a stepping stone to build on skills and abilities. Today was a great start to the new school year for our precious preschoolers!  We look forward to this school year!
