💛 Sweet treats. A BIG cause. And one of our favorite HCA traditions is back!
September is Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month, and HCA is proud to kick off our 3rd Annual Pediatric Cancer Fundraiser, benefiting the Children’s Hospital of Georgia! 🎗️
This year, we’re keeping it sweet with cotton candy for just $5, available for purchase daily in the Canteen! Students can grab a treat while helping support children and families facing pediatric cancer right here in our region.
🎗️ Cotton Candy: $5
📍 On sale daily in the Canteen
💛 Proceeds benefit Children’s Hospital of Georgia
This fundraiser has become such a special HCA tradition because it gives our students a simple way to see service in action—one $5 tub at a time.
Because We are the Village—and our Village shows up. 💙

Only students with a grandparent or special guest attending will join us in the Commons, while classmates enjoy a special activity in their classroom — making it a fun morning for every Stallion.
❗️Grandparents & special guests, please make sure to RSVP so we know you’re coming and can have your Stallion ready to meet you!
We can’t wait to spend A Grand Morning with some very special members of our Village! 💙💛

🌦️🎥 LOOK WHO’S ON TV!
We love seeing our Stallions shine outside the classroom, and this one is too good not to share! 💙
HCA 4th grader David Jackson, from Mrs. Lintner’s class, recently joined WFXG FOX54’s Jay Jefferies for “Weather with Jay” — and can we just say, David is a natural on TV! ⭐️
David has some BIG plans for his future — he wants to be a surgeon! 🩺
☁️ He chatted with Jay, helped with the weather forecast, and even made sure to give some on-air buddy shout-outs to Avery, Liam, and Bryant!
David, with over 1,000 Stallions in your corner, you’ve got a whole Village of buddies — and fans — cheering you on! We loved watching you shine and represent HCA! 🙌
