Welcome back, teachers!

Our teachers are back at HCA next week to prepare for the new year. Pray for our teachers and the Lord's blessing and goodness to cover this school year as they get ready for the return of all the HCA students. Make sure to join us at the Back to School Picnic on Saturday, August 10 to see your teachers! At the picnic, you can find out class information if you need to know your Preschool or Lower School teachers or Middle School schedules. We look forward to seeing your family!

DOWNLOAD THE NEW HCA APP
We built this for you! We are excited for our families and students to have access to our new Harvest Christian Academy app! We will be using this app to send you important school information and reminders, and you will also be able to find all the HCA information that you need, right at your fingertips. You will also be able to subscribe to your student's class news and alerts and school level news. We have the app packed with information that your family needs easy access to and we can't wait for you to download the app for yourself! Search for Harvest Christian Academy in the App Store to get started or click on the links above. We will have informational flyers at the Back to School Picnic to help you optimize the features in the app most relevant to your family!
