History

Providence opened on September 6, 1991, with an enrollment of just 354 students in K-12th grade. The school occupied two-thirds of a strip shopping center, and all the desks, furniture, and computers were donated. The class of 1992, the first senior class, named the school "Providence".[2]

During its first six years Providence grew by 50 students each year, and in 1993 purchased the building it was in and expanded into the entire building. By 2007, Providence had over 800 students.[2]

In 2011, the school added football and the iProv initiative, which issued iPads to students in 7th-12th grades, and the school changed its mascot from the "Stars" to the "Storm". In 2013, the school announced the construction of the Lamar Lussi Athletic Complex, a multi-sport complex named in honor of PCA Director of Encouragement Lamar Lussi. It was scheduled to be completed in early 2016.[3]
