While this trip is usually reserved for middle school students, HFCA 4th graders spent the day in Springfield.

SO to our Eagle athletes! The XC team ran in the NWCC Finals on Saturday. Makaya led the JV Girls with a 3rd place finish with a PR time of 6:42. JV girls team (Ava, Brianna, and Kylee) finished 3rd in the conference, and Brendan also finished 3rd with a new PR of 6:17. Varsity boys (Dominic, Sean, and Alexander) all had PR times in the 2-mile run. Congrats athletes and big TY to the coaches!

Drone technology is part of our 5-unit STEAM program for middle school this year. HFCA 6th-8th gr. students work in teams to assemble drones, power up the app, and simulate using drones during a major flood to assess damages without risk to rescuers. They learned and applied thrust, pitch, roll, and yaw. Click the headline to learn about the STEAM units for 2023-2024.

Join us Tuesday, April 11 at 6 PM in the multitorium. Jim Gill, award-winning musician and author will energetically bang out rhythms on his banjo while the audience claps, jumps, dances, and even sneezes along to his silly and inspiring songs!
