  • Are you affiliated with a denomination?

    No. We are a Christian school without denominational ties.

    Our focus is on nurturing core values inspired by faith — kindness, honesty, empathy, patience, gratitude, and respect. We teach children to live these values daily through their words, actions, and relationships, helping them grow into compassionate, grounded, and confident individuals who reflect God’s love in how they treat others.

  • What is the Reggio Emilia approach?

    Originating in Reggio Emilia, Italy, this philosophy was built on a timeless idea — that children learn best when their curiosity leads the way. Decades later, it remains one of the most forward-thinking approaches in early education, emphasizing creativity, independence, and critical thinking in a world that’s constantly evolving.

    Core Principles:

    • Child-Led Learning: Children explore topics that spark their curiosity, turning questions into meaningful projects.

    • Hands-On Discovery: Learning happens through art, nature, movement, and experimentation — not memorization.

    • Collaborative Exploration: Teachers and students learn together, encouraging communication, teamwork, and empathy.

    • Environment as a Teacher: Classrooms are calm, natural spaces designed to inspire focus, imagination, and wonder.

    • Future-Ready Thinking: Children learn how to think critically, adapt to new challenges, and see problems from multiple perspectives.

  • What’s the difference between Montessori and Reggio Emilia?

    Both Montessori and Reggio Emilia support children’s independence and respect their pace — but when the world is shifting faster than ever, one equips children to prepare for change, the other to repeat what’s known.

    • Montessori is about structured, individual work with set materials and routine tasks. It builds order, focus, repetition-based mastery.
    • Reggio Emilia is about collaboration, inquiry, and innovation. Learning rises from children’s questions and experiences — hands-on projects, group dialogue, exploring the unknown, adapting as they go.

    Why Reggio Emilia is especially suited for our fast-evolving future

    • Thinking outside the box: Studies show children in Reggio-inspired settings engage more in hypothesis, reflection, revision and creative problem-solving rather than simply reproducing tasks. 
    • Learning to ask better questions: Reggio classrooms foster curiosity, not just “What is the answer?” but “What happens if…?” and “Why?” — crucial when tomorrow’s answers aren’t yet written. 
    • Perspective and adaptability: Children work in situations without a fixed end point, engage in long-term investigations, use real materials and documentation. That builds resilience for ambiguity and change. 
    • Whole child preparation: A Reggio environment emphasizes social, emotional, cognitive and creative development equally — meaning children aren’t just ready academically, they’re ready to adapt, collaborate, lead and innovate.

    That’s why Henderson Christian Academy embraces the Reggio Emilia approach — we believe the best foundation for your child isn’t just learning what is, but learning how to learn. Because in a future that changes fast, the child who can ask better questions, see different angles and adapt becomes the one who leads.

  • Do children need to be potty trained to be enrolled?

    No — our teachers will guide and support your child through this process with care and patience.

    Children entering Preschool or Pre-K must be fully potty trained, meaning they can use the restroom, wipe, and wash their hands independently.

    In our Toddler and Two-Year-Old classrooms, potty training is an important developmental milestone built into the daily routine. Teachers work closely with each child, celebrating progress and fostering independence every step of the way.

    We see potty training not just as a routine, but as an important step in building independence, confidence, and self-care — one of the key milestones that helps children transition confidently from our Two-Year-Old classroom into Preschool.

  • Do you require uniforms?

    Yes. Preschool, Pre-K, and Discovery students wear HCA uniform shirts with navy or khaki bottoms and closed-toe shoes.

    Fridays are Spirit Shirt days.

  • What is your illness policy?

    Children must stay home if they have:

    • Fever (100°F or higher)
    • Vomiting or diarrhea
    • Contagious rash or infection

    They may return when symptom-free for 24 hours or with a doctor’s note if required.

  • How is faith integrated into daily learning?

    Faith is woven naturally into the classroom — through prayer, worship songs, kindness, and gratitude. Children learn biblical values like love, patience, and self-control through everyday routines and interactions.
