"HCA ranks as the finest of the six Christian schools our children have attended as we've moved around the U.S. They not only receive support for the values and principles we teach at home from a top-notch teaching staff, but the quality of the education is second to none. It's an easy school to invest ourselves in."
Dan Marinone, parent

"My Christian education has made me a better student because in the environment I feel safe, wanted, and loved; as a result, I can really focus on my studies."

"The individual attention and support I received during my years at HCA provided me with a strong foundation from which my character, academics, and faith could all continue to grow."
Mark Helfrick, 1998 HCA grad, Ocean Acoustics Scientist

"Though I spent only my middle school years at HCA, those three years stick out in my educational career as years of in-depth learning, exploration, and growth.  HCA provided an environment that both nurtured and challenged me, becoming a safe haven in what can often be a confusing time for teenagers.  The teachers and administration at HCA shared the same core values and a vision for all of us students that translated into the way they taught us.  Leading by example, they became more than leaders - they were mentors and role models.  I am so thankful for my time at HCA, as it helped to mold me into a more confident student and laid the foundation for my success as an adult."
Deborah Kerr, 1997 HCA grad

"The changes in our grandson have been wonderful to see. His happiness with school - at last - has brought back his smile and youthful exuberance. We're delighted he is able to attend Holden Christian Academy."
Barbara Pedersen, grandparent

"The curriculum at HCA allows children to study rich themes across all subject areas. Students and teachers are encouraged to engage in focused learning and construct new understandings without the pressures of high stakes state tests."
Holly Dolan-Rourke, M.Ed., parent, Clinical Educator

"The teachers at HCA made all the difference in my education. Not only did they love to teach, but they loved God and it showed in their lives. Their passion for God's will still inspires my studies and my worldview to this day."
