School Reviews

5  
I would like to offer a strong recommendation for Pacific Boychoir Academy. Our son is now in 6th grade at the day school. We decided to give our son the opportunity for a small learning environment where he could thrive. His academics are excelling: he is learning independence, time management, being taught in a more individualized way that allows him to learn about himself and how he needs to approach his academics in the future. The camaraderie of the all-boys environment is fantastic. The musical education they receive is outstanding. Their opportunities are life changing for these boys. They are learning to be active, engaged members of the community and to get a chance to perform with these professional organizations and learn and observe from them is in incredible gift. They are supported by the life lessons that are taught and instilled along the way: good manners, eye contact, life skills (table manners, changing tires, learning how to tie a tie!), professional behavior at a venue, and of course, being kind and respectful to others. Every day when I drop my son off, he says how much he loves the school. I feel so lucky we found PBA and hope you consider giving it a look!
