Hendersonville Christian Academy, currently in its 35th year and serving 260 students, is opening an extension campus in Gallatin to serve preschoolers. Headmaster William Slater says the school has, for two years, operated a bus service that picks up and drops off at Harvest Hills Baptist Church, but preschoolers were not eligible.
“It is a matter of convenience for our existing families and also opening up that opportunity to the folks in Gallatin, too,” Slater says. “Then, the idea is once a student is ready to enter the first grade they can get on the bus and come to the main campus in Hendersonville.”
