Homeschool Connection

at Portsmouth Christian Academy

Partnering with Our
Homeschool Community

At Portsmouth Christian Academy, we recognize the homeschool commitment we see within our community. We understand the effort it takes to educate your children at home, and we partner with you by offering a la carte classes that enhance your child’s curriculum and open new opportunities for learning and growth.

From math and science to music and art, our classes are designed to inspire curiosity and deepen understanding. Students are able to find ways to grow academically while also developing spiritually, supported by teachers who know each child by name.

Grounded in a Christian worldview, our differentiated learning approach encourages critical thinking, creativity, and character development. At PCA, homeschool students do more than simply attend classes — they join a community where their God-given potential is maximized, nurtured and celebrated!

Why Partner with a Traditional School?

PCA is fortunate to have many homeschool families as part of its community.
When asked why they chose to incorporate traditional schooling into their homeschooling model, homeschool parents responded with:

“We wanted our daughter to be ready for college—academically and socially—and with strong executive skills that would allow her to thrive at college without mom and dad guiding.”

“My comfort level with the subject was waning, and I wanted my child to have someone teaching him who was passionate and considered an expert in that area, and could impart a love of the subject to him.”

“We reached the point where my child no longer appreciated mom-as-teaching-authority. His independence was growing and he needed to have separation of authority in the home (as parents) and authority of subject matter/school.”
