  • Park City Academy is an outstanding school with first-rate teachers. Small class sizes with an excellent academic program that includes visual and performance art, music, Spanish, science labs, physical and outdoor education, technology - all right here in Park City. It is comforting to know that our child is in an attentive and nurturing environment where teachers and staff care about each and every student. What a joy to watch our child's self-confidence and leadership skills thrive from the encouragement he receives at PCA.
