DISCOVER. BELONG. LEAD.
Middle School at HHCA (Grades 6–8) is a season of exciting firsts—retreat, electives, clubs, and the chance to participate in middle school athletics. This year, we’ve enriched the experience even further with the launch of our House System, a fun, team-based structure that fosters belonging, leadership, positive behavior, and a strong Christ-centered community. Here, students are encouraged to grow in faith, friendships, and confidence as they step into new opportunities and discover their God-given gifts.
EXPLORING THE MIDDLE SCHOOL JOURNEY
Environment makes such a difference in a student's success, both in and out of the classroom. Our goal is to help middle schoolers navigate these years well, growing in character, integrity, responsibility, and most of all, in their understanding of who they are in Christ.
- Mr. Jay Scarbro, Middle School Principal
At Hilton Head Christian Academy, our Guidance Team partners with families to walk alongside students throughout their educational journey.
During the pivotal Middle School years, students have access to a dedicated school counselor who provides encouragement, advocacy, and support as they navigate new opportunities and challenges.
Kayla Spangler, MS School Counselor, works in collaboration with families, mentors, and students to ensure every child feels known and supported. Her work includes:
✔️ Individual and small group counseling
✔️ Parent, student, and mentor meetings
✔️ Providing a spiritually safe space where students can grow in confidence and faith
This intentional approach helps Middle School students build resilience, strengthen character, and prepare for success in Upper School and beyond.
