- Paradise Christian Academy, a ministry of Paradise Church, is now accepting new students for the 2006-2007 school year. Established in 1980, Paradise Christian Academy has been serving families from the Las Vegas and Henderson areas using a Christ-centered curriculum where the Bible is taught in every class.
- We support the parents with the character development of their child(ren) while acknowledging that the biggest influence in their child’s life is their parents and extended family. PCA partners with the parents and requires them to monitor the progress of their student(s) from home through our website, help with discipline (if necessary), and ensure the required homework/schoolwork is complete.
- Tuition Payment Plans Available
- The student/teacher ratio for kindergarten is 15/1 and 21/1 for grades 1st – 12th. The proposed additional classrooms/gymnasium will help PCA diversify in new areas.
