Development of the Whole Child

Harrisburg Academy’s academic curriculum encourages the arts, languages, and physical activity rather than cutting programs sometimes viewed as “expendable” because they don’t readily support standardized test score results. Our students learn about and live in a diverse community with an eye towards what it means to be a responsible global and local citizen. Our students score higher on standardized tests, even though no class time is allotted to “teaching to the test” or test preparation.  We also offer many options at school such as music lessons, sports, clubs, and social activities to further the education and development of the "whole" child.
