Open Houses Announced for January, February and March
On January 16, February 27 and March 26 at 9am, Harvester will welcome prospective families onto our campus for a tour of our facilities during the school day, when teachers and students are unscripted and in action. Guests will meet administrators, get answers to all of their questions and discover what Harvester does to earn its place in Niche.comβs βBest Schools of 2020.β
Niche.com released its list of β2020 Best Schoolsβ and Harvester, once again, joined those coveted ranks and also earned the title βBest Private School in Douglas County.β Nicheβs grades are calculated using public reviews and millions of data points, which undergo advanced algorithms and statistical analysis. The data points include standardized test scores and information from the Department of Education, the Private School Universe Survey, Common Core Data, and Civil Rights Data Collection among others. Nicheβs research team combines its statistical data and compares it to industry standards. The final βreport cardβ is designed to capture what a school is really like. Harvesterβs overall report card grade is an A- for the 2019-2020 school year.
For the 2018-2019 school year, Harvester Christian Academy had the highest SAT and ACT scores in Douglas County and exceeded the state and national averages. Over 90% of our students are on-track to receive the HOPE Scholarship, more than double the state average. Our class of 2019 consisted of 22 students who received over $2 million in scholarships, not including HOPE, and 100% were accepted to college-- typically to the studentsβ first-choice college. Compare that to public schools whose classes receive an average of $4 million in scholarships but have more than 10x the number of graduates and Harvester becomes an amazing value as well.
