I am so happy my boys are attending HCA. My sister had her 5 children attend HCA and seeing how much they enjoyed school and the great study habits that they had learned really helped push me towards this school. My boys are thriving in this small close-knit school. The school feels like family. The office staff is amazing, super friendly and always willing to help anyway that they can. The teachers go beyond the normal call of duty, actually caring about their students. I fully recommend this school to everyone that wants a good school with small class sizes that does not focus on test scores but focuses on the spiritual and academic fulfillment.

HCA is a GREAT school! I would recommend this school to any parent or child looking for a good Christian, family, accepting atmosphere. My daughter previously attended public school in Kindergarten and first grade. In those 2 yrs the big focus for those student's was popularity at such a young age. 30 students to a room. 90% spent on discipline. At HCA my daughter and I receive a reinforced foundation of our Christian faith. Smaller class sizes for more one on one care. A genuine care for student's and parents. The new Creative Arts program is well accepted by student's. This gives an opportunity for each student to select classes of interest that opens an inner talent for each one to expand on. A talent they never thought they had the opportunity to express. HCA is also a diverse school with students and parents from all backgrounds and cultures but yet with so much love! HCA is a school guided by God!

I cannot begin to explain what a true Godsend Highland Christian Academy has been for our family. Our journey with HCA began when my son was turning five years old and I wanted him in full-day Kindergarten rather than the 2.5 hours a day in a public school setting. The teachers and staff are beyond amazing and the small class sizes really allow for a lot of one-on-one time for the students. My son is learning in a Christian setting, but above all, he is having so much fun that it doesn t even feel like learning. Not only does he love being at school, love his classmates, love his teachers, and love learning he is THRIVING, both academically (straight A report card for the past 2 years) and spiritually (he loves talking about how good God is). Highland Christian Academy is definitely the right fit for us, and it wouldn t be possible without the financial scholarships that are offered to families to help offset the cost. I appreciate everything that the staff at HCA has done for both myself and my son. He is excelling in all areas and I couldn't be happier.

We have 2 kids in HCA and coudn't be happier. They are testing a year ahead (or more) of their grade level and they are growing in their faith. But what sets HCA apart is that every child feels included and loved. Every color and economic situation is represented. My kids didn't feel like they fit in and didn't want to go to school before and now they love it and feel welcomed and loved. We also didn't think we could afford it but HCA worked with us to make it possible (69% of kids on scholarship) . We are very thankful for the school.
