Why Partner with a Traditional School?

PCA is blessed 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.”

“The other kids in our homeschool co-op were aging out, and our child craved the stimulation and bonds we had.”
