Houma Christian School

HCS will not be observing "Fall Break" this school year. Friday, October 15th through Tuesday, October 19th we will be open for both students and staff. Our Homecoming Social will be rescheduled for a later date. Mr. Jimmy's weekly Monday update can be located on both the app and the school website by visiting the 'Live Feed' section. Thank you in advance for being flexible and understanding during this time.

Update: Monday, September 20, 2021 Good news. The HCS campus is currently buzzing with contractors working hard to get our campus back up and running. We have roofing and water mitigation contractors at the school making repairs to the damaged buildings. Houma Christian School has several buildings with shingles and/ or metal roofs. By the end of today, all of the shingle buildings should be completely done. One of our biggest obstacles is waiting for the insurance adjuster to make a prompt decision and approval for the metal roofs. Please pray for favor as the insurance company makes a decision for a replacement or repair for the metal roofs. The buildings that have metal roofs include the gym, sanctuary, and elementary hall. The contractors are confident to get everything done quickly when the material is ordered and shipped. That is why it is important to get a quick decision from the adjuster. We are still targeting Monday, October 4th as our return date. Please be in prayer that God removes any obstacles that would cause any delays. Again, we will keep everyone updated through this process. I have attached some pictures of the work being done at the school.

This entire event was made possible through donations. Thank you to everyone who gave. This is our community and these are our people. We encourage every family to help your neighbor and shine the light of Jesus during this time. Video: https://youtu.be/T2pkGN6zqMI

Houma Christian School has set Monday, October 4th as our reopening date for in-person learning at school. We will start with live and in-person instruction and not virtual learning. We are working closely with our contractors to get all necessary repairs completed to ensure that the campus is safe and secure. We will send out updates every Monday to provide everyone with the progress being made. We will have to modify the official school calendar to adjust for missed instructional minutes. We are planning to have the new calendar posted in the next couple of weeks. We are anticipating that Thanksgiving and Christmas break will remain the same so our contractors can come on campus to finalize repairs. We appreciate everyone’s support, patience, and encouragement as we work hard to get the school back open. We love and miss everyone. *Warriors Strong! “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” {Romans 15:13}

The work day that was scheduled for tomorrow has been canceled due to weather. We will keep everyone posted on a rescheduled date.

Att: Warrior Family We wanted to give everyone an update. First, our continued prayers are with everyone that was impacted by this terrible storm as it was devastating to our area. We have had so many people and organizations over the past several days reach out to check on us, and we appreciate it very much. We want to let everyone know that Houma Christian School is fully committed to repairing our campus and quickly opening for instruction for our staff and students as soon as it is safe and appropriate. The campus did sustain damage, but nothing that cannot be repaired. We are already working with our insurance company to begin the mitigation process of getting our campus back to pre-storm operation. We are asking our Warrior family to please be patient as we work hard to develop a good reopening plan to bring students and staff back. We serve a big God and we are resting on His hope and promise to continue the great work at Houma Christian School (Psalms 138:8). We will keep our Warrior family updated on the Road to Reopening. We love and miss everyone. God Bless! Warriors Strong

Houma Christian School is committed to reopening when appropriate but will be closed until further notice. The campus appears to have only minor damage but will know for sure when we are able to do a full assessment. We are confident that we will reopen as soon as possible. God Bless!

Our hearts and prayers are with all our Warrior family during this most challenging time. Due to the extensive damage to our community, Houma Christian School will be closed indefinitely. We will persevere and overcome. Please stay tuned for updates. Romans 15:13

Praying for all those in the path of Hurricane Ida! #Warriorstrong

HCS will be closed on Monday, August 30th.

Due to the possible threat of Hurricane conditions in our area, Houma Christian School will be closed on Monday, August 30th. Please stay tuned for important updates on our website, Houma Christian App, texts, and Facebook page for possible extended days. More detailed information will be going out in the next couple days. Please stay safe and God Bless.

Our 10th graders are learning about osmosis using gummy bears. YUM!

7th/8th Grade Quarantined Students: Please log on to AR Home Connect from the school website, log in to your account, and take the Star Reading test today or tomorrow. You can do this during PE, study hall, or during any extra time. If you need your user name and password, please email your study hall teacher for that information. Thank you!

Tomorrow (Thursday) is an EXTRA dress down day! BUT - instead of $1.00, students will bring in items such as soap, small shampoos, wash towels, and/or hygiene items to dress down. Only one item is needed, but if they bring more, even better! Hope Community Church is in the process of installing showers that the homeless can use for free. We would like to create small bags with items needed for bathing that would be a blessing and can easily be given to those that use the showers. We will also include notes of hope and a Bible in these bags. We are so blessed that our school can be a small sign of hope and comfort for those in need.
