CRUSADER CARE

Hello!

Park Place Christian Academy offers an after-school AND a summer-long childcare contractual program via its CRUSADER CARE program.

Designed for PPCA students beginning with K3, the programs are tailored for each student’s specific needs, whether those are rest/nap times for the littlest Crusaders or homework help for the older ones.

Under the supervision of Crusader Care Director Melissa Crawford and Assistant Crusader Care Director Jessica Jones, enrolled students are given daily opportunities for structured and unstructured playtime, both indoor and outdoor when the weather is agreeable.

The Crusader Care (CC) staff is trained year-round in CPR, First Aid, Stranger Danger, Weather Threats, and other ways to help ease families’ concerns about the constant care their children are receiving while enrolled with PPCA Crusader Care.
