The learning environment created through Patrick Craig Academy, combined with the expertise of qualified tutors, propels students towards full mastery of the ACT and SAT. The sense of community fostered through group sessions makes PCA a fun place to attend; the result is confidence with the test and score increases for those who take advantage of that beneficial environment. We find that students’ results are highly correlated to their effort. For the past twelve years, this model has generated motivated, successful students, with ACT and SAT scores that they are proud to send to colleges.
