That's a wrap on September! One month of school is in the books, and we can't believe how fast the time is going!
October is shaping up to be FULL, so please see below for announcements and events!

HMH + SCHOOL LUNCHES
We can't wait to welcome you into our new cafe space THIS WEEK! Heritage Meeting House opened 3 years ago, as a passion project and a home for our (then) newly acquired Preservation Library. We spent the summer moving from our previous location and renovating our new home inside the Acorn, at the corner of Tuckey and Manges.
We are hosting a soft launch with a full drink menu but limited food menu this week, until our Grand Opening on Friday! Starting tomorrow, all of your favorite cafe drinks are available, as well as our baked goods, bagels, breakfast items, sandwiches and more!
Coming soon we'll have raw juices, acai bowls, smoothies, overnight oats, boba and more!
All HCA families receive 10% off of your order, so make sure to let the barista's know that you're with HCA!
We will currently be open from 7:30am-2pm this week, and we'll be announcing extended hours, coming soon.
As for school lunches - we will reintroduce those next week! Ordering information will be announced next weekend, so stay tuned!
PARENT/TEACHER CONFERENCES
It's already time to start booking our P/T Conferences! These dates are listed on the master calendar, but please note - October 9 (for the M/W program) and October 10 (for the T/Th program) are HALF DAYS. Students will have class from 9-12 and will be dismissed BEFORE lunch.
Conferences (15 minutes long) will then take place in the afternoon, starting at 12:30. Please follow the link below to book a time slot with your child's teacher!
ALSO - we are framing Term 1 Conferences a little differently this year. We will have examples in the class of what your student has been working on, but we truly want to hear from YOU during this set of conferences. How are things going at home? What has been going well? What is your child wrestling with? How can we help them succeed? Our goal is to SUPPORT your homeschool endeavors, and although you'll hear about our observations here at HCA, we truly want to get to know you and your family and hear how we can best support you.
Please plan on a 15 minute meeting. We know this is a short window of time, but we consider this just the START of the conversation and an early touch point to develop plans throughout the year.
 BAND
If you have not joined the HCA Family Band or your child's class Band, you are missing pertinent announcements and information. It is ABSOLUTELY necessary for you to join, as the time sensitive information (class projects, field trips, homework, etc) is announced in that space. Please check the pinned posts at the top of the Family Band for your child's Class band link.
SCHOOL PICTURES
Mark your calendar for October 22 + 23 for HCA School Pictures! This will be a non-uniform day and more information will be coming soon!
FALL DINNER
We are waiting to confirm our venue for the Fall Dinner but hope to announce those dates this coming week! stay tuned!
PRAYER
We are going to be talking a lot about prayer this year in chapel, and so we'd like to extend an invitation! If your family (or at least one spouse) is in full-time ministry or full-time non-profit work, could you please email me? We'll be praying for each of you in our chapel services this year, and we would love to connect! Additionally, we'll be reaching out to local churches and minstries about their prayer needs. If you think your church would like to hear from us, please let me know! k.rea@heritagechristianacademy.net
STUDENT INFO SHEETS AND CONTRACTS
If you haven't completed your Student Information Sheets (and any other paperwork for this coming year) it is IMPERATIVE that it be completed THIS WEEK. The link for the paperwork was emailed to you at enrollment (search your email for "Save this email"). Inside these sheets are, among other things, medical and emergency information for your child, and we MUST have that on file, for their safety.
If you are unable to located that link, please email the office (office@heritagechristianacademy.net) immediately.
