As we wind down Term 2, prepare for Spring Break, and make plans for Term 3, I wanted to pause before the chaos of the next few weeks and say thank you!
We've had a wonderful few days of exams so far and we couldn't do it without our amazing volunteers! The students love showing off what they know, and we appreciate our Exam Volunteers more than you'll know!! thank you for giving us your time!
Please take note of the annoucemnents for this week and I'll see you soon!

SPRING BREAK + HMH
Spring break offically start at the end of this week. Your students will complete their exams on Wed (3/5) and Thur (3/6) and then Spring Break begins.
There will be no classes the week of March 10-13, and classes will resume on Monday 3/17 and Tuesday 3/18.
Please note that HMH is closed THIS WEEK (3/3-3/8) due to Bethel's spring break schedule. However, we are still offering school lunches for the remainder of Term 2.
ILLNESSES
Sadly, there are multiple strains of illnesses going around and we have been both short staffed and missing many of our students. PLEASE use extreme caution when sending your child to school if they aren't feeling well, keeping in mind that we have many large famillies, and sicknesses spread quickly between siblings. We want to be courteous and take every possible measure to contain these nasty bugs! Please refer to the handbook (in your Family Portal App) for our thresholds on fevers and sickness.
TERM 2 EXAM DATES
Volunteer sign-ups for our Term 2 Exams are now published in our Family Band! We rely on our partnership with all of you to make this week a success! The kids love showing off what they know and it's a wonderful glimpse into their days at HCA!
Exams take place February 26th - March 6th.

CHAPEL OFFERING
Each year, HCA chooses a non-profit to partner with and we collect an offering during each chapel. The funds collected are then sent off to our chosen charity at the end of the year. This year, we are going to partner with Samaritan's Purse and raise funds for the victims of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina. The comunities that were devastated by the hurricane will be rebuidling for years, so we will be talking about this charity all year long.
THANK YOU for your generosity diring our Christmas Chapel! We were able to raise $687 for Samaritan's Purse!
A YEAR OF PRAYER
In chapel, we’re focusing on prayer this year, and we’d love to know how we can pray for you. If you or your spouse are in full-time ministry or non-profit work, please let me know—we’d love to include you in our prayers. We’re also reaching out to local churches, so let us know if yours would like to connect. Feel free to email me at k.rea@heritagechristianacademy.net.
