School Notes
- Our mission is to instill a biblical worldview in our students, and they will, in turn, inspire, impact, and serve their communities. They will become critical thinkers who are academically and spiritually prepared for the purposes to which God is calling them. They will be defenders of the Christian faith and able to exquisitely articulate that defense. They will fix their thoughts on all things true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable.

HCA is a quality, Christ-centered (5 stars!) school through and through! It's academically challenging yet also accommodating to each child's need. The teachers and director are like family and really care about the students academic success and about their faith and character development. Our children had a great experience there and made some great lifelong friends there too. We highly recommend HCA in Spirit Lake, ID. We only wish they continued into middle school and HS.
