Seeds and Fruits Christian Academy is set to open the doors of its newest location, in The Woodlands area, on Aug. 19 to enrolled students, founder and academy head Giewee Hammond confirmed.
Zooming in
Seeds and Fruits Christian Academy follows a hybrid learning model where students ages 5-12 attend in-person classes Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays and receive "comprehensive education” in a range of subjects, according to its website.
Its K-6 grade curriculum includes elementary-level reading, writing, mathematics, arts, music, robotics, Spanish, nature studies and Biblical studies.
The institution’s structure was designed to lessen the instructional burden placed on parents and grant more opportunities for enrichment and quality time with children after school and at home.
Quote of note
Hammond told Community Impact that Seeds and Fruits is meant to be an extension of the home where students do not just grow academically, but also grow in the expression of their faith.
“We are an answered prayer to those who feel overwhelmed by all of the duties involved in raising a family,” Hammond said. “By maintaining a heart that the parents have built at home—whether it’s through the Bible or responsibility—and then also keeping academic excellence high, we’re helping [parents] really tap into a deeper part of their child’s heart and get to know their child better.”
What parents should know
The Christian-based academy is currently accepting applications for its first cohort of students this fall. As of early July, there are 20 seats available for founding families who enroll and are accepted within the application window, per website details.
After the completion of the academy’s first academic calendar year, Hammond said that she, along with other school officials, will refine its systems as needed before potentially increasing the enrollment cap.
