The HCS staff is working feverishly to open a brand new media center on the second floor of the main building. This will be predominantly geared for Junior and senior high school students. It will feature computer terminals with internet access, multi-media equipment for project preparation and presentations. Contact the school office if you would like to contribute with books, office furniture, laptop computers, projectors, flat screen TVs, DVD players, art work, etc.

The elementary media center is also receiving a facelift that will make it better than ever. This will improve our elementary students’ education experience as they will be able to have their own library/learning center that caters to their educational needs.
