THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY...PCCS has received so many calls, texts, messages from those in the surrounding communities and from afar that we know and have never met who have expressed their support, volunteered services, and reported that their families, churches, and offices have been in prayer for our school and those affected by this tragedy. 

We so appreciate you!  May God bless you for this expression of love and concern.

SYMPATHY NOTICE SEPTEMBER 24, 2018  (updated 09/25/18)

PCCS is saddened by today's car accident involving two of our high school students.  One, as of this evening (9-24), is in critical condition and the other lost his life.  Please join our school family in praying for the surviving young man's recovery, the boys' families, their fellow students, teachers and staff.  We celebrate the young man's life and grieve at this loss. Prayers are appreciated.  UPDATE:  The injured boy is stable and doctors have a promising prognosis for his liver to heal; we hope to see him home by next week.

PCCS offers enriching Christ-centered education for more than 250 students in grades Primer through 12th.  The school was founded in 2002 and is fully accredited by the international accrediting organization, AdVancEd (parent organization of Southern Association for College & Schools/SACS). PCCS is located on a 9.5 acre campus in rural Poetry, Texas, 10 minutes north of Terrell and 25 minutes southeast of Rockwall.
