Why PWCA?

 
PWCA is an educational ministry of South Valley Community Church in Gilroy.  Our school exists to provide a high quality Christian education, Preschool through 8th grade, to the Santa Clara, San Benito, and Monterey Counties.  PWCA began in 1985 and continues to provide academic excellence with a strong spiritual foundation.
  • Your child will learn to be caring, as modeled by a caring staff that invests time in each child, discovering their learning styles, their strengths and their challenges.  Each student will learn to respect one another, as modeled by our staff.
     
  • Your child will learn to be a leader both in the classroom and on the campus.  Many leadership opportunities are available at PWCA and we gently encourage to lead courageously.
     
  • Your child will learn to be accountable.  PWCA students grow in character and learn to take responsibility for their actions and strive to be strong morally and academically.
     
  • Your child will learn to be a scholar and will learn the satisfaction of an assignment well done and on time.  They will advance in reading, writing and arithmetic, as well as the sciences, the arts and physical education.
     
  • Your child will learn to be a disciple of Jesus Christ by being discipled by mature Christian believers who are here because they love children and want to mentor them to be Christ-like in every area of their life.  Students are taught that the Bible is the source of all Truth and to depend upon the promises found within God's Word.
