HCA is made up of early education, elementary, middle, and high school divisions.  

Early Education
We combine  A Beka, Links to Literacy, and our own style to create an atmosphere of
love, play and learning in our early education division.  We welcome visitors to tour our
classrooms and meet our teachers.   

Elementary and Middle
HCA uses the A Beka curriculum in our elementary and middle divisions to build a
solid foundation in reading, writing, and arithmetic.  Students begin writing cursive in
first grade and are reading by the time they leave our pre-kindergarten classes.  We
teach every subject every day of the week.  All subjects are emphasized at HCA, not just
the ones that will be on state tests.    

High School
Our high school division uses the A.C.E. Curriculum.  Students work at their own pace
and learn self discipline as well as important study skills that will carry them through
adult hood.  The curriculum is personalized so that students are working at the level
they are most comfortable with. Even though A.C.E. is typically a self-paced system, we
hold daily algebra classes taught by our high school teacher and principal.  Our high
school teacher is highly skilled in chemistry and math and provides the support
needed to complete the science and math credits needed for graduation.  Computers
are used to teach foreign language, reading, and technology.  Our program allows those
that are highly motivated to excel and those that struggle the opportunity to succeed.  
After taking the College Placement Test, our students are able to Dual Enroll at Santa
Fe Community College.  
Philosophy
Hope Christian Academy is a distinctly Christian school that incorporates the truths
found in the Bible into every aspect of our educational process. We endeavor to provide
academic excellence from a Christian view that will equip each child to be successful in
all areas of life. We hold to the truth that the Bible is the inspired, infallible, inerrant,
eternal Word of God. Every part of our curriculum is interpreted and applied from a
Christ centered, Bible based perspective. We couple this with teachers whose sincere
desire is to impact lives for eternity.
