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

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.

Our principals also spoke with their divisions, covering Harkness in middle and high school and various professional development topics in preschool and elementary.

We look forward to all of our students returning from spring break tomorrow!

We are so thankful the Lord gave our students, chaperones, and teachers a safe trip to Washington D.C. this week. They learned about our nation's heroes, honored those who gave their lives for the liberty we enjoy, and experienced highlights they'll talk about for years to come!

Earlier this year, middle school students played "Steal the Mascot" - similar to "Capture the Flag." Each House started with a stuffed animal coinciding with their House mascot. Students tried to find which teacher's room housed the opposing House's mascot for the day and had to take it without having it taken back from them later in the day. Students gained points by having a teacher take their photo with the other teams' mascots.

Our Middle School House System unites 6th-8th grades in community, mentorship, competition, and service.

We introduced students to the ministry of Isaiah 117 House in Elementary chapel, and then they brought in pajama and hoodie donations to help bless children in the foster care system. We are so thankful to all who participated, and the students had a blast!

First graders recently celebrated Texas Independence Day, commemorating the signing of the Texas Declaration of Independence in 1836. Their shadow boxes displayed various Texas facts they've learned this year.

In the words of our beloved 1st grade teacher and Texas native Mrs. Melancon, students celebrated with "Boot scootin', chili, Texas sheet cake, sweet tea, steer ropin', cattle brandin', shoe tossin', and horse races!"

We were so glad parents, grandparents, and friends joined us for such an inspirational Evening of Truth, Beauty, and Goodness! Through our students' energy, songs, dances, and creativity, we reflected on the true, beautiful, and good things that God has brought into our lives.

God is the Author of saving Truth. "I am the way, and the truth, and the life." John 14:6 God is the Creator of objective Beauty. "One thing have I asked of the LORD, that will I seek after… that I may gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in his temple." Psalm 29:2 God is the Source of infinite Goodness. "For how great is his goodness, and how great his beauty!" Zechariah 9:17 "The LORD is good to all, and his mercy is over all that he has made." Psalm 145:6

We love our HillCo grandparents! In Titus chapter two, Paul identifies the important role grandparents play in the lives of their grandchildren - teaching them to love the Lord and their families and to conduct themselves in a godly manner.

We hope it warms your heart as much as ours to see these students smiling from ear to ear in the arms of grandma and grandpa.

Our very own panel of military veterans, with over 75 years of US Military service combined, heard presentations from our 8th graders on why they should be selected to help lay the wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier during their class trip next week.

Congratulations to Will A., Violet C., Zoie L., and Jordan W. for being selected to participate in the ceremony!

Please pray with us for our students, teachers, and chaperones as they travel next week.

Principal Lindsey and Principal Bayer spoke to their students about integrity today during the middle and high school chapels. Proverbs 11:3 shows that integrity will guide the upright, and a few biblical examples include Job (Job 1:1; 2:9), the Hebrew midwives (Exodus 1:17), and the three Hebrews in Daniel - Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego (Daniel 3:16-18).

After the lesson, the group prayed for our students traveling to the Dominican Republic over the break - and we ask that you pray for them too!

Our first-ever She Leads women's conference was fantastic! Our HillCo moms and their daughters learned what it looks like to lead in a way that honors God and attended breakout sessions covering topics on a biblical perspective on leadership, friendships, health, and more!

God's design for the home is for the father's heart to be toward his children and for children to glory in their father (Malachi 4:6; Proverbs 17:6).

Today, our 2nd graders celebrated "Founding Fathers Day," where they read about the lives of our country's Founding Fathers to their dads and enjoyed donuts, hugs, and smiles with them. #hillcountrychristianschool

Our preschool and elementary students celebrated Black History Month by reading from this list of children's books (which are also available in our library).

From agricultural scientist and inventor Dr. George Washington Carver and surgeon Dr. Charles Drew to ophthalmologist Dr. Patricia Barth and computer scientist Dorothy Vaughan, they learned about some of the world's greatest inventors and scientists who were African Americans. https://www.hillcountrychristianschool.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Black-History-month-heroes.pdf

We will hold our final "Generation Z Unfiltered" book club session tomorrow night from 6:00-7:30 p.m. We will discuss "Teaching Students to Think Critically" and examine what God says about reasoning and truth in His Word.

Through the discussions, parents have gained insight and perspective on raising their students in this digital age. All HillCo parents are invited to attend.
