Pantego Christian Academy (PCA) is a private Christian school in Tarrant County, Texas, United States. Its main campus, the Arlington Campus, has a building at 2201 West Park Row Drive in Arlington and a 57,000-square-foot (5,300 m2) high school building at 2221 West Park Row Drive in Pantego.[1][2] The Arlington Campus has 670 students in grades pre-kindergarten through grade 12.[1] The system also operates the Mansfield Campus at 2351 Country Club Drive in Mansfield which teaches 143 students from age 3 through grade 5.[3]

History

Pantego Bible Church opened the school in 1963 on a 7-acre site between Arlington and Pantego. In 1996 the church and school began separate financial operations, and in 1997 the school became an independent school, purchasing the Pantego Bible Church facilities for its use, while the church built facilities at a new location. In 2008, PCA continued to expand its facilities by purchasing the adjacent Stripling & Cox building to use as a high school. PCA recently celebrated its 50th anniversary.[4]
