School Notes:
- The philosophy behind HCA is summed up in our motto: "Training minds to lead and hearts to serve." We take as our guiding mandate Proverbs 22:6, "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it." We exist for the primary purpose of joining with Christian families to present the truth of God's Word to the minds and hearts of our children. We seek to do this first of all as role models of the grace of God through our own lives. Then, through interaction with students in the classroom, at play, on field trips, in chapel, in the athletic arena, in every setting God gives us, we seek to know Christ and to make Him known. By God's grace we desire that our students grow in the understanding and commitment that all truth is God's truth ("Tota veritas est Dei veritas!"), and that only the knowledge of God through Jesus Christ gives fullness and meaning to life ("Jesus answered, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" John 14:6). Then we desire not just to equip our students to be positive change agents in our culture, but also to enable them by the power of the Holy Spirit to be servants of Christ to a dying world. Ultimately, our success will only be revealed in the light of eternity. Our role at HCA is to stand alongside Christian parents and the local church to assist them in raising young Christian leaders of the future. Our curriculum and activities are designed to demonstrate the Lordship of Christ over all of life. We seek to provide a safe and Christ-honoring environment that will challenge both faculty and students to strive for excellence spiritually, academically, socially, and physically. Harvester is an important community where students will develop self-image and self-esteem, set goals, and cultivate talents for His glory. The encouragement and opportunities students encounter will have a powerful impact on their future. Harvester Christian Academy is committed to sending our students into the world to proclaim Christ, to live lives of service in His kingdom, and to change our culture and the world through the power of the gospel. Harvester promotes enjoyment of learning, problem solving, and independent thinking so that students are able to respond enthusiastically to challenge. Harvester students excel both inside and outside of the classroom. As our students venture out into the world they will build their lives upon a solid foundation, which will weather the storms ahead of them.
