Covid-19 Update: Our preparedness plan and fall opening letter can be found under our Important Documents Tab. We are looking forward to opening school as scheduled after Labor Day to in-person learning. We continue to keep the health and safety of our students and staff at the forefront of our planning.
As of December 1, 2020, we are still holding classes in-person with distance learning limited to cohorts with positive exposure to COVID-19. Due to space limitations, we have limited availability for new enrollments. We do have space in our kindergarten and pre-school classes. Call the office to check on availability in other grades. Enrollment for next year will open March 1, 2021. 12/4/2020 FIRE UPDATE: Thank you to our community for supporting Harvest Christian School after the fire in our Depot/elementary building in September 2020. We are working to replace the space lost due to this fire. Updates will be sent to churches and supporters through our regular newsletter methods.
1/11/2020 FIRE/BUILDING UPDATE: HCS is moving forward with replacing the Depot. While trying to be good stewards of the gifts God has given to us, we have determined that purchasing a new building is more cost effective than replacing the Depot on site. Please see our donation page for more information. 4/12/2021 FIRE/BUILDING UPDATE The Depot demolition is complete. We look forward to closing on the purchase of a new building this week and beginning renovations immediately after the closing. We are thankful for several large gifts that have made this possible. We continue to be in awe of how God is in charge of this process. |
Christ Centered Education
|
Harvest Christian School’s philosophy of education is based upon the Word of God. We endeavor to provide an atmosphere where the Word of God is preeminent in every subject throughout the school day.
One primary objective is to see our students grow spiritually. This is reinforced in every subject, not just in Bible class or chapel. Teachers and staff model a lifestyle of fellowship with God, and as a result, the student’s understanding of that lifestyle grows. The Word of God is taught; Scripture is memorized, and the application of God’s Word in daily living is stressed. Students also learn who they are in Christ, allowing them to develop their individual gifts and talents. By developing those gifts, students are equipped to pursue the calling that is on their lives, whether it is in ministry, business, homemaking, or any other service. |
Academic Excellence
|
Academically, Harvest Christian School stresses excellence in every subject. Curriculum is continually evaluated to ensure that academic objectives are being met. The academic standards and expectations are high but not unrealistic. While we realize that each student has different abilities, we expect each student to do his or her best. Our goal is to academically equip our students with knowledge and understanding that prepares them to succeed. |

Your Family and Harvest
|
Another key element in our educational philosophy is the partnership between the home and Harvest Christian School. Unless there is a healthy, supportive, and effective relationship between the school and the home, the student’s education will suffer. God established the home, not the school, as the primary place for training, learning, and education to occur. The caring, Christ-like attitudes of Harvest Christian School teachers are valued by students and parents. Parents expect and appreciate direct and regular communication from faculty regarding their children. In return, teachers expect Harvest Christian School parents to be responsive to their suggestions regarding their children. When this partnership is honored by all parties involved, every child at Harvest Christian School is capable of reaching his or her fullest potential. |
