Annex
"A Foundation of Faith and Education for Life-Long Success"

Annex Information

​

The annex program is an optional tutorial program available to families who are enrolled in HCA. Registration for the following school year begins every March for new families and continues until classes are full. Contact the office to register: Kristina Parnell at kristinaparnell.hca@gmail.com.

​

Who? The annex is open to all students in grades 3-6 who are registered in HCA's Church Related School.

​

What is annex? Qualified tutors are hired to facilitate our weekly classes. Throughout the week, parents are responsible for ensuring their children are completing their work while annex tutors assign the curriculum and assignments. The annex tutorial offers a history/science combo class, math, & language arts (includes spelling, reading, writing, and grammar).

​

How does it work? Each class will be based on grade-level academic and behavioral expectations. These classes will be hands-on, interactive, and highly educational, and this would serve as the curriculum for your child for the entire year. The tutors will teach the content one day a week and provide the weekly homework assignments. Parents are responsible for assisting their children throughout the week with their homework. All parents will have access to an online portal to communicate easily with the tutors throughout the week.

​

Do parents have to volunteer? The annex aims to be simplistic; parents have no volunteer responsibilities. Parents are not permitted to stay on campus as this is a drop-off tutorial program. We are renting the exact number of rooms we need for classes, so there is no place for families to “hang out” while children are in class. Parents may run errands or wait outside while classes are in session.

​

When, and where? Annex is a 30 week program that meets on Tuesdays in Hermitage, TN.  

​

Why? We believe in the gift that homeschooling can be to families, but we also know that not every parent can be an expert in every subject. Qualified tutors can enhance our homeschooling by filling in our weaknesses. We also believe in the gift of community! Tutorial offers a family to walk with you as you travel on your homeschooling journey.

​

How much? Pricing for 2023-2024 are as follows: Registration for tutorial costs $80 per student with a $55 fundraising fee in addition to your CRS fees. Each class has a fee of $240 for one-hour. Some classes have a small supply fee as well.
