WELCOME! As we finish off preparations for the start of school (on September 4 + 5), please take a moment to read the reminders and announcements below!
We are eagerly counting down the days to a new year of exploring! (and mud...and rocks in pockets...and Shakespeare plays...and History narrations...and chapel hymns and days spent growing together!)
With anticipation,
Mrs. Rea
WEEKLY UPDATES
You will receive regular updates here! Announcements and reminders will be posted in this online format and shared via the Parent's Band AND will be accessible via a button in your online Parent's Portal.
JUNIPER GROVE JOURNALS
Each year, HCA gifts our 4th grade students as well as all NEW students with an heirloom quality leather journal that will travel with them throughout the remainder of their school year. These are beautifully hand crafted by a Charlotte Mason homeschooling family in central Indiana.
If you are a NEW family with a child in grades 4 and up, OR you have a child entering 4th grade, please follow the link below to place an order for your complimentary journal! (please read the entire ordering page, which provides the coupon code necessary to make this complimentary!)
Your child will need to choose the cover color and string color and HCA has already pre-chosen the inserts that will arrive in the journal.
Please note that all journal orders MUST be placed by August 25! After 8/25, your child will receive a dark brown leather journal with green accents strings.
OPEN HOUSES ON 8/26 and 8/27
Don't forget to join us for our 24/25 Open Houses! This is when your child will bring their school supplies (CLEARLY LABELED!), pick up their uniforms and meet their new teachers!
Open Houses are
Monday, 8/26, from 5-7pm (for the Monday/Wednesday Program)
Tuesday, 8/27, from 5-7pm (for the Tuesday/Thursday Program)
CURRICULUM WORKSHOPS
New this year, Curriculum Workshops By Form have been posted in your child's class band. Please take a moment and listen as you finalize your at-home materials for the year!
PLEASE NOTE - this is especially important for those of you with students in grades 7/8 and high school, to hear more about a few curriculum changes that we made this year.
NEW SPACES AND CAMPUS MAP!
As many of you know, we've had a BUSY summer, furiously moving classrooms, the library, AND the cafe! Please note our NEW locations this year!
The Main HCA office (Mrs. Kesler), Mrs. Rea's office, and Cottage School through grade 6 is now located on the first floor of Tuckey Hall! This is the wing of the brick building that faces Eastwood.
Grades 7 - high school will be located on the BOTTOM floor of Eastwood (same location as last year) and the school library (Heritage Children's Library) will be located on the TOP floor of Eastwood.
And finally, Heritage Meeting House is now located inside the Acorn, right at the corner, where Tuckey Hall and Manges Hall come together! This will be open to the public, with a Grand Re-Opening planned for early September! Parents are welcome to park (in the gravel lot across from Tuckey), walk their students to class, and enjoy a latte in the morning! We will be debuting new mobile pick-up and specials for HCA families only!
