We are excited to announce that applications for the 2026-2027 school year, grades K-5, are now open!  The application must be completed and all supplemental documents submitted before an applicant can progress to the next step in the admissions process.  A non-refundable application fee of $200 must be submitted with each application (family maximum=$400).

HCA does not have an application deadline and will continue to accept applications as long as there is space available.  However, priority is given to early applicants and we want to maintain small class sizes, so please apply as early as possible while there is still space available.

Some grade levels still have space available for the remainder of this (‘25-’26) school year. Please contact the office for details before paying the online application fee.

Admissions Criteria

In keeping with HCA’s mission of developing students academically and spiritually, based on Biblical truth, HCA considers the following:

·       Families who understand and accept our mission and are willing to support it.

·       Students whose academic records demonstrate proven capability to succeed in our program.  Therefore, students’ records will be carefully evaluated prior to acceptance.

·       Students who demonstrate a behavioral history (through report cards, references, etc.) that is in harmony with the behavioral expectations of HCA.

Tuition Information:

The 2026-2027 tuition for Harbor Christian Academy is $9,800 per year, well below the Oregon private elementary school average of $11,433. We work hard with families to make this high quality education from certified teachers available to as many students as possible. If you are concerned about your ability to pay, we encourage you to fill out a financial aid form after your child’s application has been accepted. This allows us to explore possible funding sources for your family. Many of our families received financial assistance in ‘25-’26.
