by Eric Peterman / Blog / No Comments / October 15, 2020

The transition from the end of summer to return to school can be a stressful time for both children and parents. The start of the new school year is exciting, but it also prompts stress and anxiety. Many children display some difficulty separating from parents to attend school, and some shyness or worry about schedules, schoolwork, or friends is natural. 

With the change, some anxiety is a normal response, but parents can empower and encourage their children as they return to school.

“I’m bored!”

Not every activity has to be “virtual” or use some form of technology.

Mr. Roy Hobson teaches 5th grade to an empty classroom as Hillsdale Christian Academy goes online today for e-learning. The students can all see and hear Mr. Hobson online and it is class as usual…for the most part.

Utilizing the zoom conferencing app, our academy classes are under way and students are learning once again. Our staff went through an extensive training to be sure we were up to the task and so far, it has been a great start.

Hillsdale Christian Academy is so thankful for our amazing teachers who can enrich the lives of our students even over the internet.

We love our families and cannot wait to be together again at school and a student body. Until then, we are thankful for resources that allow us to continue serving our families. To God be the glory.

HCA Beyond the Box – A Good Night Story

HCA Beyond the Box – A Good Night Story

Mrs Walker, our first grade teacher at Hillsdale Christian Academy, is thinking out of the box as she reaches her students beyond the classroom.

Teaching life principles through Christ-centered curriculum is one of the distinctives of our training at HCA. Touching the hearts of each student is also a distinctive at HCA and Mrs. Walker did just that.

Huddled around their computers, the first grade students enjoyed a bed time story with Mrs. Walker and her friends. Puppet friends joined her on the screen as she told a story and wished her students a good night’s sleep. Being out of the classroom has not stopped Mrs. Walker from reaching her students right where they are.

It is these little heart-touches and character-impacts that happen along life’s way that make the eternal difference. Thank you, Mrs. Walker, for loving and caring for our families so much. We love you.

We are now enrolling for next year and invite you to stop by and see the difference that Hillsdale can make for your family.
