The early years of students’ education are so important — for the academic foundation they will build, the character they will develop, and the worldview they will form. As a parent, you’ve poured into your child and want to ensure the values you’ve instilled in them will be reinforced, not challenged. At Portsmouth Christian Academy, we partner with parents to equip their young learners for meaningful lives, integrating biblical truth in the classroom and beyond.

The Lower School at PCA encompasses kindergarten through grade 5. We refer to grades K-2 as Primary and grades 3-5 as Elementary. During these formative years, our students experience the joy of community and develop a love for learning that will carry them through their academic journeys.

Situated on over 50 picturesque acres along the Bellamy River in Dover, NH, PCA is New England's largest independent Christian school, serving 500+ students from NH, ME, and MA in pre-K through high school.
