Hands-on Learning. Distinctly Christian.
We believe there are a handful of imperatives that make school great, and that set us apart. First, our commitment to teaching within the context of a Biblical worldview is integrated into everything we do. Whatever the subject matter - whether it's math or art or science or baseball - we teach, coach, lead, and guide from a Biblical perspective.
God's Word guides what we say and more importantly-it guides what we do-moment by moment. It is not an addendum to our curriculum; rather, it is the place we begin--the lens through which we see everything.
Our project-based learning model, coupled with this distinctly Christian worldview, enables our students to grow in Christ-centered confidence and Christ-centered worth, while becoming the problem-solvers, collaborators, and innovators God created them to be.
Outcomes that Matter
Our project-based curriculum focuses on five research-based, measurable learning outcomes, which guide every facet of learning at HHCA and prepare students for college, career, and life.
Aiming beyond mastery of required educational standards, HHCA mentors engage students with challenging projects and practical application of course content, providing regular opportunities for students to learn, adapt and engage effectively in the world around them.

Built to Inspire and Engage
We believe schools should inspire and engage, offering relevant learning experiences that give students the best opportunities possible to develop skills that prepare them for whatever their path beyond school may be.
While many schools claim to be helping students develop such skills, few have an academic model specifically designed with this in mind, along with an objective matrix to track growth in these areas.
Studies show that students who work towards mastery of learning outcomes such as those measured at HHCA in subjects like math, science, and language arts are significantly more engaged and more successful both academically and developmentally.
