Does Pella Christian have a dress code or uniform requirements?

Do families provide student technology?
Pella Christian Schools has a 1:1 technology program for students in 4th grade and older.  The desire of Pella Christian is to continue to provide tools and resources for our students who are 21st century learners. Increasing access to technology is essential for the future of our students and the use of devices is a way to help them apply technology in college, in the workplace, and beyond.  

Does Pella Christian follow the Common Core?
As an independently accredited school in the State of Iowa, Pella Christian has the ability to add, delete, and modify state and national curriculum such as Common Core to align it with our core values as a faith-based institution.  When each curricular area is reviewed a team of teachers, administrators, board representatives, and parent volunteers examines the Iowa Core to determine the desired level of alignment in that curricular area. As we create curriculum that promotes the Pella Christian vision, mission, and values, we choose to use standards from the Core only if they reflect our desired rigor and do not conflict with our beliefs.
