The Hawthorne Christian Academy (HCA) is a co-educational private Christian school system, serving students in Kindergarten through 12th grade. The Academy is associated with the Hawthorne Gospel Church, and is located on Route 208 in Hawthorne, New Jersey, United States. The school opened in 1981 and had its first graduating class eight years later.

As of the 2005-06 school year, the school had an enrollment of 483 students and 41.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student-teacher ratio of 11.8.

Athletics

Given the school's small size, the school had not been accepted to participate in any of the area sports leagues. After a decision by the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association in February 2008, Hawthorne Christian Academy and Saddle River Day School will be added into the Olympic Division of the Bergen County Scholastic League starting as of September 2008. [Schutta, Gregory. [http://www.northjersey.com/hssports/Two_non-publics_enter_BCSL_Olympic.html "Two non-publics enter BCSL Olympic"] , "The Record (Bergen County)", February 7. 2008. Accessed February 7, 2008.]

Despite the lack of formal league competition, the school has achieved success in track and field competition. The school's Lindsay Van Alstine broke the Passaic County record in the 3200m, the seventh-fastest run in state history. [Figueroa, Shane. [http://www.northjersey.com/page.php?qstr=eXJpcnk3ZjczN2Y3dnFlZUVFeXkxNTEmZmdiZWw3Zjd2cWVlRUV5eTYzNzkwNDUmeXJpcnk3ZjcxN2Y3dnFlZUVFeXk2 "Record Setters"] , "The Record (Bergen County)", May 15, 2003. Accessed June 19, 2007. "For a school with no track program, Hawthorne Christian Academy certainly did well on the first day of the Passaic County girls track championships. That's because the school's one track representative, Lindsay Van Alstine, ran herself into the Passaic County and New Jersey record books with a dominant performance in the 3,200 meters. Van Alstine broke the Passaic County record for the second time in a week. Her time of 10:31.6 was more than 10 seconds better than second-place finisher Jesse Mizzone and the seventh-fastest time in New Jersey State history."]

The boys soccer team has made it to the semifinals of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA) Parochial North B state championship tournament, falling 2-1 in 2000 to eventual runner-up Don Bosco Preparatory High School, [ [http://www.bracketmaker.com/scripts-bracketmaker/tmenu.cfm?tid=1714&tclass=Parochial%20North%20B 2000 - Parochial North B] , NJSIAA. Accessed June 19, 2007.] and by a 5-0 final score in 2003 to eventual winner Morristown-Beard School. [ [http://www.bracketmaker.com/tmenu.cfm?tid=49669&tclass=North%20Parochial%20B 2003 Boys Soccer - North Parochial B] , NJSIAA. Accessed June 19, 2007.]
