Our Teaching Philosophy

Pacific Boychoir Academy is More than a Choir Program

Pacific Boychoir Academy is a GRAMMY Award-winning school for boys grades 3-8. We have nurtured young scholars and artists since 2004.

PBA develops boys into curious, creative, and empathetic young men. Our educational approach combines an immersive academic curriculum with elite musicianship for boys.

Many programs claim to prepare boys for the real world — PBA takes them there!  Music is the vehicle which allows our choristers to be ambassadors and prepares them to be global citizens.

Whole-Brain
Education

Music paired with academics invokes boys’ right-brain capabilities for language processing, sensory awareness, mood, memory and moral reasoning.

“Best for Boys”
Active Learning

Immersive education suits the strengths and needs of boys – with opportunities for hands-on learning, peer collaboration, and out-of-classroom learning.  The Best for Boys learning approach harnesses our students’ energy into life-long learning.

Small Class
Sizes

We have a teacher-student ratio of 1:4 and classes are capped at 12 students.  Our instructors can account for varied learning styles, individualize lessons, and provide boys one-on-one attention.  Faculty members offer boys the encouragement, social-emotional skills, and inspiration they need.

Strong High School
Placement

Boys graduate from PBA well-prepared to enter public and independent high schools in the Bay Area and beyond.  Students explore and navigate their options during their high school search with support from our high school placement advisors.  Faculty supports along the way and prepares students well for life after PBA.

Incredible Performance
Opportunities

Day school boys pursue academics seriously and mature personally. Boys reach significant milestones together through the unique opportunities we provide in integrated performing arts and academic program, .
