Middle School
EVERY YEAR MATTERS
During the crucial years of middle school, students begin to develop a sense of who they are and what they believe, while simultaneously gaining a new level independence and responsibility. They are stepping into an exciting new season, poised for their transition into Upper School and beyond.
Every class and every extracurricular offered to HHCA Middle School students is set to prepare them for their future. Students learn to view the world, their life, and their work through the lens of God's Word, so that upon graduation, they will be equipped to fulfill HHCA's vision: To Know Christ and Make Him Known.
