Pinnacle Christian Online Pathway
Pinnacle works in partnership with Pathway Christian Prep Academy (PCPA) to set high schoolers up on an individualized path to achieve even the most ambitious goals and provide academic and spiritual support as life skills are fostered. Our desire is to cultivate an atmosphere of high expectations blended with grace where students are equipped to make a difference in the world for Christ
Accreditation matters when evaluating private Christian online schools. When a school is accredited, it demonstrates to parents, students, the greater community, and post-secondary institutions that it meets rigorous research-based performance standards for excellence in education. Simply put, accreditation can help your child’s chances of being accepted at his or her top choices when he or she is ready to attend college. Pathway is proud to be fully accredited by Cognia (previously AdvancED). Recognized worldwide, Cognia bestows recognition under the authority of various accreditation agencies, including NCA CASI, NWAC, and SACS CASI.
Pinnacle Christian Online Pathway’s responsibility for the student encompasses the spiritual, intellectual, mental, physical, social, and emotional areas. Our commitment is to discover, and help students discover, who they are in Christ, how they learn, their unique gifting, what drives them as a child of God, and how to apply all of these attributes to their school experience with the forward view of global impact.
