In fact, all students are a part of ministering to those both here in the Surrey community and on the other side of the world.

Our FSA test results reflect our wide-reaching admissions philosophy.
The faculty, staff and leadership at Pacific Academy are tremendously proud of our Fraser Institute FSA (Foundation Skills Assessment) test results because they consistently reflect our philosophy of enrolling students from as many diverse economic and cultural backgrounds as possible.
Our commitment to reaching our community is so strong that nearly 90% of new families cite our outreach efforts as the reason for wanting their child/children to attend. What's more, over 80% of graduating students report their outreach experience as dramatically impacting their lives.
Reaching our local community - and the world - for Jesus.
We believe that as Christians, we can talk about "loving our neighbor" and "fulfilling the great commission" as much as we like, but until we do it, it does nothing for others or ourselves. That's why we make service and outreach a part of the lives of every student - from junior kindergarten through grade 12 - at Pacific Academy.
Pacific Academy is committed to providing a learning and working environment that supports all students and staff, as well as equitable opportunities to support our diverse community.
See our 3 year Accessibility planPacific Academy is one K-12 school, united by a shared vision and mission. Our four divisions - Primary, Intermediate, Middle, and High School - are intentionally designed to support students at each stage of their development while creating one connected journey from Junior Kindergarten through Grade 12. Each Division offers an age-appropriate learning community, while students remain part of one school, one community, and one shared vision.
From Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12, students grow in faith, character, and purpose. Equipped to lead. Empowered to serve.
Primary School (PS)
From Junior Kindergarten through Grade 2, children learn through hands-on activities, play, and everyday discoveries that build strong foundations in literacy, numeracy, relationships, and faith. In a joyful, nurturing environment, students are encouraged to know Jesus, explore God’s world, create, ask questions, serve others, and begin to understand that they are uniquely created and deeply valued by God.
Our primary school is noted for its dedicated, nurturing teachers and staff who believe strongly in the importance of parental involvement and effective communication with home. All classrooms are well-equipped and include specialized instruction in music and physical education as well as a thematic approach that uses a Biblical foundation to teach academics and the fine arts. An extensive learning support program also features early reading intervention and a team of teaching aids to provide special classroom assistance when needed.
Junior Kindergarten is a division of our Primary school that specifically meet the needs of three-and four-year-olds. And it’s been a tremendous success. This special part of our school focuses on helping children learn about the world in which they live by exploring the intricacies of God’s creation. They learn to acquire the basic values and social skills necessary to grasp the character of God as reflected in his creation.
They're also given the basic literacy and numeracy skills they'll need in years to come as they receive their formal education. Children are encouraged to take calculated risks when faced with unfamiliar challenges - all under the watchful eye of caring and nurturing teachers who offer guidance and support along the way.
Intermediate School (IS)
In Grades 3-5, students build greater independence as they explore, question, and deepen their understanding of the world around them. Engaging learning across the curriculum helps them grow academically, deepen their relationship with Jesus, and discover that leadership begins with serving others with compassion, generosity, and kindness.
As children reach the intermediate school years, they begin to become more and more aware of the world around them. So we build upon the solid foundation laid by the primary school teachers to help children grow in Biblical knowledge and to personally experience their relationship with Jesus. We also encourage them to nurture that relationship with Him and to use it as a basis for living in community while joyfully extending Christ's love through a life of learning, evangelism and service.
And service is something we encourage at all grade levels - including here in the intermediate school. Students serve others through both local and international outreach programs. They also regularly pray for students in Kibaale, Uganda.
The academic program provides a solid foundation in literacy and mathematical thinking as well as social studies and sciences which are carefully chosen to provide a vehicle for exploring God's creation as an integral unit and to measure a meaningful context for reading, writing, investigating and questioning the world around them.
Middle School (MS)
Grades 6-8 are a time of significant growth as students become more independent, ask deeper questions, and discover more fully who God has created them to be. Through academics, the arts, outdoor education, athletics, service, and leadership, students develop their gifts, grow in courage, and learn that they can use their voice and influence to make a meaningful difference.
The middle school academic curriculum focuses on humanities, math, science, French, Bible, outdoor education, computer science and fine arts at every grade level. We also emphasize and teach the importance of good study skills, extra-curricular activities and community service and outreach.
In fact, students collect change each week and make books and charts to support schools Pacific Academy sponsors in developing countries. They also reach out to the local community by visiting senior citizens' homes, helping in day care centers, ministering in small churches, helping at area food banks, distributing clothing for the underprivileged and buddying with younger students.
High School (HS)
In Grades 9-12, students take greater ownership of their learning, faith, and future as they pursue their strengths, think deeply, and prepare for life beyond graduation. Through academics, leadership, service, athletics, the arts, and outreach, students are equipped to live out their faith with confidence and conviction as they step into the world ready to lead, serve, and live adventurous, Spirit-led lives.
What's more, like all the other grades here at Pacific Academy, outreach is a large part of the high school curriculum. Through various outreach opportunities, students are equipped to express and defend their faith while developing compassion for the underprivileged and appreciating how the great commission relates to "going into all the world."
The High School offers educational opportunities for International students.
Since September of 1985: a place for students to grow both spiritually and academically.
