The school is somewhat small compared to other secular schools so you really get to know the other students and staff there. It's a strict Christian school, not so much in terms of discipline but of thought. As others have mentioned it's some what of a bubble. Overall though I enjoyed the experience there. Staff is nice and everyone is friendly.

We have a great experience at HCA. Parents are highly involved and teacher and staff are dedicated. It depends on your perspective and desires that determines if he will have a great experience.

This is our 3rd year at HCA and we currently have 2 children enrolled in the Lower School. We absolutely love it!I feel that their teachers not only care that they are learning, but genuinely care about them on the whole.

HCA is an amazing school! My kids LOVE HCA. The teachers are competent and caring, the leadership is solid. The students learn about God's word and Christian character.

Horrible and disappointing. They cherry pick who they want to accept and I’m sure my daughter’s teacher let out a sigh of relief when we left. If we didn’t leave, the school would’ve ruined her. It’s like playing with fire to put your child in the hands of unskilled, not-so-smart “professionals”.
