We will know your child

“O LORD, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar.” – Psalm 139:1-2 In Psalm 139, David stands in awe that God knows everything about him and perfectly understands his ways. In the same way God knows your child’s likes and dislikes, their temperament and tendencies, we desire to know our students and point them to Jesus.

We will

know

your child

We will love your child

When did God start loving your child? From eternity past! Regarding the nation of Israel, God tells the prophet Jeremiah, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.” (Jeremiah 31:3) At Hill Country, we strive to love our students as Jesus loves them – unconditionally.

We will

love

your child

We will prepare your child

Ephesians 2:10 says, “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” We are motivated with a Christ-like passion to see students equipped to lay hold of the incredible life God has designed specifically for them – all to bring Him glory!

We will

prepare

your child

There are many things we love about Hill Country,

but two of them are the close-knit community and our faculty. The greatest assets of this school are the teachers, staff, and coaches who invest so much of their time into our children to become Christian leaders and lifelong learners.

Hill Country Stories

One distinctive that sets Hill Country Christian School apart is our close-knit, Christ-centered community. We believe the best way to learn about our school is to hear personal stories from our faculty, parents, and alumni about their Hill Country experiences.

We welcomed our new faculty to Hill Country this week! Today, they engaged in a Harkness discussion over The Lost Tools of Learning and Wisdom and Eloquence.

Congratulations to 5th grader Anthony G! Throughout the year, 1st-5th graders memorize Scripture passages and must recite them all in succession to receive a Gold Star. Well done, Anthony!

The Lady Knights Varsity got their first win of the season in a thrilling five-set victory over New Braunfels Christian. Miriam V. had 21 kills to lead the team; Anna H. and Emma C. also had three blocks each. Alexa C. had 17 digs on the night.

Come tonight to see the Lady Knights' first home game vs. Waco Reicher. Junior varsity plays at 5:00 p.m., and varsity starts at 6:30 p.m. It should be a great game - help us pack the MAC and cheer on your Lady Knights!

Please continue to pray for the family of Dave Jackson - husband of Margaret Jackson, father of Joy Hudgens, father-in-law of Philip Hudgens, and long-time supporter of Hill Country Christian School. Dave passed away unexpectedly last Thursday, August 4. You may read his obituary here: https://loom.ly/SUJBZWc

Dave and his wife Margaret were instrumental from the beginning of Hill Country Christian School. They started Hill Country Heritage School (K-4th grade) with two other families and later gave their school to Hill Country Bible Church, to merge with then two-year-old Hill Country Christian School (6th-9th), establishing the school we know today.

Dave will be greatly missed. The legacy of his dedication and support to the school will continue for generations as families choose Hill Country Christian School for their children's education.

“The memory of the righteous is blessed” (Proverbs 10:7). May our memory of Dave Jackson’s life and legacy bless us to continue our work of training young men and women to impact the world with the love of Christ.

Let us thank God for the life of Dave Jackson and pray for the Jackson and Hudgens family during this time, always remembering the words of the Apostle Paul, “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain” (Philippians 1:21).
