Yesterday, we held our Bilingual Celebration for our Spanish Immersion students! Each year, we recognize the incredible progress these students have made and the work the Lord is doing in their lives. This day is especially significant for our First Graders, as it marks the occasion when they receive their Certificates of Bilingualism. From this point forward, they will speak only in Spanish in class! We are grateful for this program, which truly embraces our mission "To Know Christ and Make Him Known," both in Charlotte and around the world.

Today in Chapel, our students learned what it means to have self-control! Pastor Campbell preached out of James, while Pastor Jacob spent time in Proverbs today. During our Lions Connect, Pastor Jacob also talked about self-control with our parents using the book “What Do I Say When…” by Dr. Andrew Walker. It was a great day to worship together!

Potential teachers, we’re excited to invite you to our very first Teacher Job Fair at Hickory Grove Christian School. Come learn more about who we are, our heart for Christian education, and how you might be part of what God is doing here. Tuesday, January 13 6:00 PM RSVP: HGChristian.org/JobFair We’d love to meet you!

Merry Christmas from Hickory Grove Christian School!

Yesterday, we hosted our first-ever Career Fair! Students connected with professionals from law, healthcare, trades, law enforcement, and the military, gaining real insight into future opportunities. Our juniors and seniors also had the opportunity to sit down with these professionals to learn more about their careers and journeys, and ask them questions. Huge thanks to every speaker and volunteer who made the day a success!

Applications are NOW OPEN to all prospective families for the 2026–2027 Academic Year! We encourage you to submit your application as soon as possible, as space is limited in several grade levels. You can access the application at hgchristian.org/admissions. *Students currently enrolled at HGCS are automatically re-enrolled for the 2026-2027 school year and do not need to complete a new application.

Our third graders wrapped up their Economics unit with a hands-on Paper Market! Each student designed their own paper-made product and put their skills to the test in advertising, pricing, navigating supply and demand, and even bartering with classmates.

We can't wait to worship together this Friday, November 21, at Thanksgiving Chapel! Join us at 9:30 am in the Worship Center as we celebrate the goodness and faithfulness of God! There will be no Lions Connect after Chapel. For those who purchased tickets to the Elementary Thanksgiving Banquet, be sure to check your assigned time for lunch.

On Friday, we hosted our 3rd Annual Veterans Day Breakfast to honor the men and women from our school and church community who have faithfully served our country. Today, we thank you, we are grateful for you. For your service, sacrifice, and leadership for this nation. Each year, our Fiber Crafts class presents the Threads of Honor quilt to a veteran whose courage and dedication inspire us all. This year’s recipient was Captain John Bryan, who served aboard the USS Forrestal in 1967 during a tragic explosion and fire. His story is one of strength, resilience, and service. Thank you to the teachers, students, staff, and administration who made this special morning possible.

What an incredible night! Thanks to your generosity, the AAA Silent Auction raised over $35,000 to support Athletics, Arts, and Academics at Hickory Grove. A heartfelt thank-you to our donors, sponsors, and every guest who made this evening possible — your support continues to make a lasting impact on our students and programs!

Thursday is Chapel Day! We look forward to seeing you at 8 for our Elementary Chapel or 9:30 for our Middle and High School Chapel. During the break between chapels in 1111/1112, we will have our Lions Connect! We will have a time of prayer, teaching, and fellowship for our parents. We will discuss “What Do I Say When...” by Andrew Walker.
