Admissions

HCA is designed for kindergarten through twelfth-grade students who need a structured environment, clear expectations, consistency, lowered stress, more movement, multi-sensory learning, and both remediation and challenge.

Our ideal student will be able to function within a group without danger to himself or others. She may need direct teaching in social skills, and that will be provided. Within those limits, HCA actively seeks a student body diverse in race, color, nationality, religion, family structure, and socioeconomic background. Unfortunately, HCA is not able to take students who are not toilet trained.

The admissions team is currently reviewing first round applications for 2026-2027. Applications submitted after 02/01/2026 will be considered on a rolling basis. First round acceptance letters will be emailed March 10th. We continue to accept applications for the 2026-2027 school year. Please call the school to ensure there is space available in your student’s potential classroom.
