Portland Jewish Academy
Quoted from the Portland Jewish Academy Website:
"Before & Afterschool Enrichment Program at Forest Park Elementary School

7:00 am - 8:00 am
Our Mission
Our programs are dedicated to the care, education, and development of children and youth during
their out of school time. We emphasize life skills through community service and enrichment-based
programming."
Anyone with experiences to share?
Both of my kids go to PJA and we could not be happier with school. The nurturing environment is one that will stay with my kids for a lifetime. They really take great pains to ensure that kids learn to treat each other with respect and understand and help in the world around them. The academics are very strong and the small class size ensures that no child falls between the cracks. The fact that the JCC is attached to the school enables your children to enjoy after school activities without needing to leave the building!
A great place!!!

Happy mom,
Where is PJA? I tried to find it on the PPS website and couldn't. Is it a part of another school?
Thanks!

Barbara, PJA is a private school and so not affiliated with PPS in anyway. See their website at http://www.portlandjewishacademy.org/ They are in SW Portland on Capital Hwy.
