MHCA does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origins.  We do seek to attract families who are committed to spiritual, intellectual, and personal growth.  We reserve the right to decide, in our sole discretion, which families are making these aspirations a priority.  We expect our students and families to maintain a positive attitude toward the Academy and its underlying spiritual values.

Specific procedures for enrollment are outlined in the New Student Enrollment Packet, which may be obtained at the Academy office or by clicking the link on our home page.

MHCA uses curriculum published by A Beka Book and Bob Jones Press.  Each family pays an annual fee to cover the cost of student books.    The rate varies from lower grades to upper grades. 

Any student interested in attending MHCA must complete the following:

• New Student Application
• Meet with the Administration for an interview if applicable
• Receive notification of acceptance  

MHCA tuition rates are among the lowest for private schools anywhere.  Please contact our offices for current rates.  Annual tuition is paid on a 10 month plan (Aug-May) and due on the 1st day of each month and is considered delinquent after the 10th day of the month. 

MHCA provides the option of aftercare as a service to school families.  It is available from 3:00-5:30 at a nominal fee.
