Making Christian Education affordable

Many families ask us about our fundraising practices at HCS, so we would like to take the opportunity to address those questions. Tuition and fees are intended to cover normal operating costs of our school. That is why opportunities to support other needs at HCS financially through fundraising will always exist. Unlike public schools, we do not receive government funds. When donors contribute to needs or projects, many things can be purchased that directly impact our students’ lives and enhance their learning experiences. We believe that no student who desires to attend Harmony Christian School should ever be denied that opportunity for financial reasons. A part of our fundraising proceeds goes to fulfill this exact need. 

For many families, providing a private Christian education for their children involves significant financial investment and sacrifice. We want to create an atmosphere where a family can give joyfully and not feel they are being asked to give beyond their means. Throughout the school year, there will be opportunities to give, but our desire is that you would not feel pressured but would prayerfully consider each opportunity. We do not desire any of our families to experience donor fatigue and encourage all families to share these opportunities to give with their family, church, and community.

We appreciate any support you give to the different areas of HCS, as you are led. Our desire is that you will be blessed in your giving as Paul said to the Corinthians.

"Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work."
2 Corinthians 9:7-8

HCS HARVEST FESTIVAL & 5K WALK/RUN

This is one of our flagship fundraisers for the year and takes place in September. We invite the entire Hudson Valley community along with the faculty/staff of Harmony Christian School, Harmony Baptist Church staff and congregation.

Some of the highlights include: tricky tray, silent auction, bake sales, large yard sale, military vehicles, fire and police vehicles, kids games, bounce house, and a dunk tank. We also have a concession stand with plenty of food. Most of the items for sale have been donated by many local businesses and families.

According to Niche.com, Harmony Christian School is ranked #3 Best Private High Schools in Orange County, NY and #19 Best Christian High Schools in NY State.
