Grades K4 – K5 (P-1)
HCA offers excellent programs designed for teaching and nurturing four and five-year-old children. A strong foundation is built for reading and math through phonics and number concepts. Although letter sounds and combinations of those sounds are the foundation at the K-4 level, many of Harvester students far exceed this goal and will expand their world infinitely with their new ability to read. HCA five-year-old students read on a level well above national norms. Math is introduced in K-4 through number concepts and by the end of K-5 students are mastering addition, subtraction, counting, and other math skills. 
Led by a highly qualified, loving, and enthusiastic faculty, instruction in the K-4 and I-5 programs encompasses a mixture of fun activities, games, arts and crafts, and traditional classroom instruction. A variety of stimulating learning opportunities is also provided for students to study and explore the world around them through hands on activities.
To enter K-4, children must be four years old by September 1st. The K-4 day operates from 8:15 a.m. – 12:30 p.m., Monday – Friday.
To enter K-5, children must be five years old by September 1st. The K-5 program operates from 8:15 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. and the full-day K-5 program operates from 8:15 a.m. – 2:45 p.m. K-5 programs share the same academic goals. In a full-day setting, the K-5 program allows for enhancement of additional class time in subject areas and enrichment activities.
Grades 1 – 6
The elementary school years are the formative years in a student’s life. It is the elementary school that has the responsibility of laying the solid 
foundation upon which increasingly sophisticated academic and personal experiences can be built. Curriculum and thoughtful lesson planning reflect the HCA faculty goals of developing student leaders who are well-balanced academically, socially, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. A variety of subjects are taught providing students with a firm grounding in areas such as math, science, reading, language, history, spelling, and Bible. Harvester students are encouraged to be independent thinkers and to make intelligent judgments and decisions. The HCA curriculum is developmentally appropriate and challenging and includes A Beka, as well as Bob Jones and CSI. Students develop poise and self-confidence through involvement in music, chapel, oral book reports and other projects. Students broaden their education by attending music, art, and physical education classes. Technology is integrated into the classroom at a developmentally appropriate pace.
A state of the art mobile computer lab extends the teacher’s and student’s capabilities into the virtual world conveniently from their individual desk. The library is updated yearly to encourage young readers to develop a love of reading. The HCA library offers the nationally recognized Accelerated Reader program. Spanish instruction is also a part of the elementary curriculum. For accountability, Harvester’s elementary students complete the Stanford Achievement Test and the Otis Lennon School Ability Test annually.
HCA faculty and staff are dedicated to providing learning experiences in an encouraging and caring atmosphere. Harvester teachers have a genuine interest in each of their students and work and pray for them to succeed individually. Elementary teachers are well qualified in teaching and childhood development. They are required to attend continuing education courses designed to energize their spirit and update their knowledge of the latest teaching methods. All HCA teachers are observed consistently and meet regularly with administration assuring classroom goals are met. Combined, the elementary teachers have over 80 years of teaching experience. Student to teacher ratio is low, approximately 15 to 1. Field trips are designed to supplement classroom studies and reflect grade-appropriate content outside the classroom. Teaching by example, service projects in the community and world are offered every year to give the students the opportunity to serve as Christ himself did.
