Principal Ashley Moses' message to the Power Center Academy Elementary Hickory Hill Village!

Admissions - Gestalt Community Schools

Calling all PCA families! We have an exciting opportunity for you as we head into the 2022-23 school year. We're still enrolling scholars in grades kindergarten, fifth and eighth grade, and we're asking current PCA families to spread the word – in exchange for a special prize, of course!

🌟If you refer one family and their child enrolls at PCA, your child will receive a FREE full uniform for their rising grade – a $200 value!

🌟If you refer two families and their children enroll at PCA, your child will receive a FREE full uniform AND a $50 Visa gift card.

Families can follow the below link to begin the enrollment process, and we've included screenshots of where they will input your name. Once they complete the enrollment process, our recruitment team will reach out to you with information on how to claim your prize. Please note that we will only accept referrals until Friday, July 1. Spread the PCA love today by sharing this post to your timeline!

In total, our school and the high school will receive $500,00 to update our building for energy efficiency and energy conservation. PCAES- HH and PCAHS are the only two schools in the city of Memphis to win the grant!!!
