Overview
Harding Academy strives to be a Christ-centered school that cultivates a love for learning, while educating the heart and mind for eternity.
We believe that each child is created by God for a divine purpose and calling.
We believe that the Bible is God's expressed will for man and reflects His Truth.
Center Hill School was founded in 1968 in the Texas Rio Grande Valley with the student body made up by the two sons of Robert and Grace Turman.
Center Hill School is a Christ-centered parochial school. Students at Center Hill enjoy an excellent academic program that emphasizes Biblical moral principles along with the normal course of studies.
Center Hill stresses the importance of parental involvement in a child's education.
The school does not take the place of the parent but rather serves to assist the parent in providing the best education possible.
