Partnering with Parents
Through Community And Support

At Haw River Christian Academy, parents are not on the outside looking in.

Families are an essential part of the life of the school, and we believe education is strongest when home, church, and school work together.

Parent Resources exist to help families stay informed, connected, and supported throughout the school year.

The Parent Teacher Fellowship (PTF)

What is the PTF?

The Parent Teacher Fellowship is an important part of Haw River Christian Academy. This dedicated group of parents generously offers their time and talents by supporting the school through prayer, volunteerism, and service.

The PTF strengthens our community and helps create a school culture where students, families, and staff are cared for and encouraged.

How We Support Haw River

The PTF plays a meaningful role in school life through a variety of efforts:

Parents often find that involvement through the PTF is one of the best ways to build relationships and contribute to the life of the school.

Join Us Monthly

Parents are warmly invited to attend our monthly PTF meetings to stay informed and get involved.

Meeting Day: First Friday of each month

Place: Fellowship Hall

Time: 8:00 AM

Simple Ways to Support HRCA

Staff, families, grandparents, and friends can support Haw River Christian Academy through several easy, ongoing efforts:

Box Tops for Education

Download the app, link to HRCA, and scan all your receipts. When any offer matches, a donation will be made to our school.

Harris Teeter Together
in Education

Link your Harris Teeter VIC card to HRCA.

Lowes Food

Link your Lowes Foods rewards account<br> to HRCA and support our school.

Uniforms

In a culture where personal expression is exalted, beauty is held in question, and the good of our neighbor is subordinated to the desires of the individual, it is the desire of HRCA to glorify God in both the character and culture of the school. The purpose of the school uniform is to foster a sense of unity among the students, to provide a consistently attractive and neat appearance for all students, to avoid peer pressure in matters of dress, and to draw less attention to oneself. Please refer to the Parent Student Handbook for specific information regarding our uniform code.

We could not be happier to have our children educated in a Classical Christian School. It has been one of the best decisions and investments we have made for our children.

Steve & Suzanne Jones, Teacher + College Counselor | Parents of a 2nd, 7th + 2025 Graduate

Our children are thriving academically and enjoy going to school each day. It is our hope that residents of Chatham County take full advantage of the opportunity that HRCA presents to their families!

Keith Smothers & Evelien Van Ekert, Parents of a 6th and 9th grader

We have watched our children grow into mature, well spoken, respectful and well rounded individuals who love the Lord. Our children are thriving at HRCA through the love, support and genuine desires from the staff.

One of the best decisions Christian parents can make is to enter into the covenant relationship that blesses and empowers their children with a classical Christian education.

Dr. Tripp Harmon, Teacher & Parent of a 12th Grader

The high academic standard is paired with a joyful, loving, Christ-centered environment where the word of God is taught and honored. It has been one of our greatest blessings to be part of this school!
