ACPA was founded upon a “no bullying” principle. ACPA has a Parent Teacher Group (ACPA PTG). The PTG assists the Arts and College Preparatory Academy by channeling resources, talent, and time to assist in the day-to-day educational needs of the students. The purpose of the PTG is to increase community and business awareness of and involvement in ACPA while fostering relationships and increasing communication between parents, teachers and students.
