HCA is a Christ-centered, non-denominational, and service-oriented environment that seeks to assist parents in helping their children and young adults grow in His image. Our foundational scripture verse is Colossians 3:23. We believe it is important to help students learn to strive for excellence and grow as much as possible in all areas. We have implemented a Individual Performance Plan for each student which addresses growth goals in 4 critical growth areas. These are Spiritual, Academic, Social and Emotional and Physical. Parents and students set these and then our staff work as a team with the family to meet and exceed these growth goals for your student well rounded success. These meetings are referred to as an IPP . This is a wonderful opportunity to address all areas of challenge and strength in your students educational experience. We are blessed daily to see the Lord working in amazing ways in students and parents lives through our HCA Ministry.

School Reviews:
January 31,2013 - We love this school... Forsyth County is suppose to have some the best public schools in Georgia and this school is leaps and bounds better than our public option. The teachers love the kids. There is an enthusiasm at the school unlike any we have experienced. We spent several years at our local public school and found the programs focused on budgets and testing scores rather than core fundamentals. We are happy to say we have found a place where our kids can succeed. We questioned the cost of private school, however feel HCA is reasonably priced. While the facilities are not the best to look at from the outside, inside they are pretty nice. The students, teachers, and adminstration are what make a school and HCA is top notch.*-Posted by Parent *
