“I am so thankful for HCA and the blessing it has been to my family. As a parent, I am confident that my daughter is in an environment that I cannot only trust, but I know that she is being cared for and poured into by the teachers and staff at HCA. For the teachers and staff at HCA, this isn't just a job, it's a mission field.”

The Jessops

“Mrs. Golder has been a blessing to our family. In the first orientation we had with her, she told the group of would-be kindergartners that in the upcoming school year she would love them as if they were her own children. This claim couldn't be closer to the truth. Mrs. Golder has cared for my children in such a loving way and with genuine concern for their academic progress as well as their overall well-being. Mrs. Golder made that year a special one full of delight and discovery, giving them the skills to be the good students they are today. Even as I write this, I get emotional because of what a wonderful experience we had with Mrs. Golder and HCA during this formative and tender time. Mrs. Golder truly is an outstanding educator and beautiful example of Christ's love. We could not love her more or be more grateful for the role she has played in our lives!”

Our Story

Hamilton Christian Academy was established in 1963 at the corner of 6th & Main in the Hamilton Assembly of God Church. Since then, Hamilton Christian Academy has provided a distinctly Christian-academic atmosphere. We are now located just four miles south of Main Street in Hamilton at the historic Grantsdale School, where we educate students from Kindergarten to 12th grades.

Located in Montana’s beautiful Bitterroot Valley, Hamilton Christian Academy provides an excellent academic experience in a positive, Christ-centered environment where students succeed and flourish.

Our well-educated and dedicated staff, highly-academic and uniquely creative learning atmosphere, and stout commitment to God helps students thrive academically and challenges them spiritually.

At HCA, we are educating exceptional students so that they will become exceptional adults—adults ready to take a stand, have a voice, and make a difference in the world.
