Join us for our 20th Anniversary Celebration on August 13-14, 2021, to commemorate God’s faithfulness to our school community over the last two decades. Since 2001, Providence Academy has served students and families as a premier Catholic, college prep school with a growing legacy of graduates serving in their communities.
We look forward to gathering with alumni, alumni parents, current and former faculty, current families, Board members, and friends of PA. Providence Academy has just over 1,000 graduates positively impacting our communities, our nation, and our world and we are proud of our Lions' legacies...past, present, and future!
Taher, PA's longtime culinary partner, will sponsor Saturday’s family picnic event. Families will choose from an array of Hawaiian-themed options specially prepared by our very own Chef Morris and renowned Chef Chris Murray with locally sourced meat and produce from Threshing Table Family Farm and Untiedt's Vegetable Farm. We will have a pig roast, including authentic Samoan BBQ with chilled pacific rim slaw (a.k.a. Hawaiian street tacos), fresh Hawaiian chalupa breads, chicken Kal-bi on the sword/skewer, Oahu waffle dogs (Hawaiian style corn dogs), skewered grilled pineapple/peppers, Hawaiian fried rice with cherries, and Chef Morris's signature burgers. Taher will also provide desserts and treats by celebrated Pastry Chef Michelle Gayer (of Salty Tart fame). Families must register in advance.
Before registering, please review the schedule of events and register for those you intend to join, so that we may plan for festivities with plenty of food and fun.
