We are so thankful to have found this treasure of a school! HCA is as much a family as it is a tremendous school, educating our children's hearts about Christ as well as their minds. Our teachers for the last 5 years have all been excellent! HCA offers Biblically sound Christian education, which sadly is becoming less common today.
