About HCA
Rooted in Faith. Growing in Grace. Learning for Life.
At Holden Christian Academy, we are more than just a school – we are a Christ-centered community where students are safe, wanted, and loved. Since our founding in 1994, we have partnered with families to provide a nurturing environment that blends strong academics with biblical truth.
From Preschool through Grade 8, our students grow spiritually, intellectually, and emotionally through hands-on learning, small class sizes, and a focus on character development. Every child is encouraged to explore their God-given potential while building meaningful relationships with peers and teachers.
We believe education is powerful when parents and teachers partner to nurture a student’s spiritual, social, emotional, physical, and academic needs.
What Our Families Say!
I am not sure I can quite express how grateful I am for the dedication HCA shows to its students in the pursuit of learning and in the pursuit of Christ. My children have flourished in an environment that could only be created by a staff that truly cares about each individual soul at HCA. HCA provides a completely immersive education experience that yields strong academic results and excitement in the students. We appreciate HCA!
Rebecca Burley
HCA Parent
HCA was a precious gem for our child and he built so many strong friendships there. It really helped strengthen and build his faith that is especially being put to the test now in public high school. It is a rare opportunity for parents to be able to be so involved with their children at HCA. I appreciate HCA for its focus on character building and firm foundation in faith and biblical teaching. Daily prayer and Christ centeredness.

HCA Parent
The support system between faculty and students, the enriching environment, well-rounded education, and the commitment to ensuring all students feel safe, wanted and loved…. To this day, even as a university graduate student, HCA was my best, most rewarding, and most enriching educational experience.
