Safety Plan
Committed to offering you a choice. Real school, real instruction, five days a week or real school, online.
In response to the uncertain future, Harrisburg Academy has developed health and safety plans for the 2020-21 school year. As the school and its community adjust to the factors involved in educating students during a global pandemic, Harrisburg Academy will continue to assess its health and safety protocols in place to mitigate health risks for students, faculty, staff, and administration and will work to maintain relationships within the school community as we support our students emotionally and academically.
Harrisburg Academy opened with on-campus and online instruction on Tuesday, August 25.
New health and wellness procedures, guided by the CDC and state guidelines, will be implemented on campus including increased health screening, social distancing measures and expectations, and cleaning and disinfection as well as limitations on campus visitors and the elimination of field trips. Additional details on updated procedures can be found at the links.
“One thing I can say for sure is how amazing our Harrisburg Academy community has been through it all. We are super impressed with the smooth transition to distance-learning. The teachers have all been positive and helpful in making our children and parents feel comfortable as well.”

Virtual Learning
During Harrisburg Academy's state-mandated campus closure, the Academy has remained committed to education continuity by developing an engaging and dynamic Distance Learning Plan (DLP) for its virtual students. In the face of unprecedented disruption of education, the Academy community has shown great resilience, ingenuity, and positivity while providing quality virtual learning. As the Academy ushers in the new school year with a new educational model, you may choose our virtual learning option.
Athletics
The health and safety of student-athletes, coaches, officials and support staff is our top priority for interscholastic sports. Our focus at this time is to implement the safety precautions for our student athletes and coaches in order to provide a safe environment for each child to learn, play, and participate in team sports.
