I went to HCA from Pre-K to seventh grade. Now that I look back on my experience there I have begun to realize how toxic the people there are. I am now a freshman at Fair Lawn HIgh School. I had left HCA due to my declining mental health, yet when it came out that I had left due to an attempt, I was condemned to hell by multiple people. There are no clubs, and little to no guidance, The "Christian Bubble," as many people call it can be a very damaging place to be in as well. The "bubble" pops in around 6th-7th grade. Although my overall experience there was unpleasant, I still made some amazing friends and had some amazing teachers. One of them being Ms. Keith who teaches 7th and 9th grade english. She is also a youth leader at the church, so if you want to get connected, I recommended the youth group. Thank you for reading this. These are my personal experiences, many people thrive there, but I did not. Thank you again! :D
The students are welcoming of new students. I came in tenth grade, and most of the students were super welcoming and kind. The school definitely prepares students for college, however the workload is very heavy. Some of teachers are rough around the edges, but are nicer in a one on one setting. The school is not very diverse and does have some issues with racial sensitivity. It is not a reflection of every student, but does reflect some of the students as well as the way incidents are handled. In my experience, there was not any bullying. There are cliques which can be hard to break into, but I never felt like I had no friends, because there are so many friendly people around. The school has its highs and lows, and therefore it was a fairly average experience for me.
We are so grateful to be a part of the Hawthorne Christian Academy Family. Our son began as a fourth grader at HCA and is now in high school. Our only regret is that we didn't find the school sooner. HCA provides a strong foundation for our young people as early as Preschool, grades 1-5, grades 6-8 and expands throughout high school. The emphasis on Christian principles, biblical studies, rigorous academics and extra-curricular activities are the core of what make HCA so GREAT! The staff is incredible and extremely helpful. HCA has truly been a blessing to our family.
