K-8 Students: On-Campus: Monday - Friday 8:00 - 2:00 (dismissal time may vary a few minutes depending on the grade level)
9-12 Students: On-Campus 2 days a week (either Monday/Tuesday OR Wednesday/Thursday) and participate virtually the other days.
ALL students have the option to choose 100 % Virtual via our Virtual Academy.
Please see the following description of each choice:
Congratulations to the members of our first graduating class, the class of 2020! We are so proud of you!
The 28 members of the class of 2020 have been offered a combined $3,409,368 in four-year academic and athletic scholarships! As of the end of the third quarter, 75% of our seniors are on track to earn an associate's degree along with their high school diploma.
On May 29 -- the day on which graduation was originally scheduled -- we will celebrate with a senior parade.
Pinnacle Classical Academy ranks in top 10% in state in ACT scores

Congratulations to the Pi rho Eagles FTC robotics team, which came in second of the 20 competitors in their tournament in Elon on January 5!
PARKING AND TRAFFIC INFORMATION
Due to the construction of the traffic circle at the intersection of Joes Lake Road and South Post Road, along with construction at the current K-2 Campus, there will be staggered arrival and dismissal times for both campuses. This situation will necessitate some changes in procedures at both campuses to make the traffic flow smoother and to keep students and parents safe. Please see Staggered Arrival and Dismissal for more information and details about traffic for the upcoming school year.
We have 15-minute parking in front of the school, and longer-term parking on the sides of the middle/high school building; please do not park in the grass.
