When school began on August 24, 2020, PCA staff, faculty, and students were back on campus for the first time together in 163 days. Teams had worked tirelessly over the previous five months to prepare to return safely to school in the midst of the continuing pandemic. Public schools surrounding PCA remained online or with hybrid schedules, making PCA a very hopeful place for parents who wanted their students to attend school in person. Over 150 new students were welcomed to the PCA family this year, causing many classes to reach their capacity limits, and creating waiting lists for the future.

In addition to the safety measures added over the summer, several technology upgrades were added as well. Cameras were added to every classroom, giving the capability of live-streaming classes to students who decided to enroll in our brand new online option, Eagles at Home. All faculty and staff transitioned to Google classroom, further streamlining our learning management system.

Throughout the summer months, major athletic improvements including new baseball and softball dugouts, permanent softball fencing, and a new baseball backstop were installed.
Weeks prior to returning to campus, the PCA parking lot was resurfaced; a much needed and greatly celebrated campus upgrade!
