Break a leg, third graders! We can’t wait to see you shine! 🌟 #HHA #ThirdGradeShow #ChameleonsRock #ArtsInfusion
Teachers danced in pairs, laughed a lot, and got creative with choreography using real dance vocabulary. Then teachers took a moment to reflect—thinking about how to use dance to spark learning, build connection, and get students moving with purpose.
Our Kindergarten and First Graders received a visit from the South Carolina Farm Bureau's AG Learning Lab.
Each class spent 45 minutes in the learning lab. During this time, they learned about farming and agriculture, including where the ingredients for pizza come from before they reach the grocery store, and participated in various hands-on activities.
They also had the chance to visit a dairy farm virtually, where they learned how wheat is harvested and turned into flour and how tomatoes become pizza sauce.
Thank you, South Carolina Farm Bureau, for sharing these experiences with our students!
Our Kinder Chameleons had an amazing day celebrating our Crazy Color Creatures. They moved through 6 rotations where students participated in many different activities from painting their own colorful chameleon t-shirt, counting and sorting Skittles by color, and even making a Purple Murple Slurple! Thank you to all the parents who came to help, this wouldn't have been possible without you!
Congratulations!!!
Today our Chameleons were greeted with high fives and smiles from the CSU cheerleading squad!
It was also PTA Spirit Day! Along with the CSU Buccaneers, Leon the Chameleon made an appearance. The kids enjoyed all the high fives, hugs, smiles, and kind words!
On Friday, we celebrated our Chameleons with Character for September.
The word of the month was Respect. These students were chosen by their peers and teachers for exhibiting respect. Congratulations to these Amazing Chameleons!
Thank you to several of our Business Partners for providing some treats and coupons for our Chameleons to enjoy!
Rita's Italian Ice in Summerville, Raising Cane's on Rivers Ave., Culver's on North Main Street in Summerville, Duck Donuts in West Ashley, Texas Roadhouse on Rivers Ave., and Dunkin' Donuts on St James.
We appreciate you!
🙌⚾ Another fabulous High Five Friday at HHA! 🏈🎉
Our Chameleons were greeted with high fives, big smiles, and words of encouragement this morning! Shoutout to the GCHS baseball team, and the Hawks returning from HHS — your spirit inspires us all! Our students love Fridays, and we hope you do too! Have an amazing weekend and keep spreading those high fives!
The culmination of this program occurs in fifth grade, where students collaborate with a skilled clay artist to create their own clay portraits. These beautiful portraits are permanently displayed in our hallways, serving as inspiring reminders of the incredible students who have embraced the power of the arts in education throughout our school's existence. 🎨✨
#HHAArts #CreativeLearning #LetsGetCreative #ArtsinEducationWeek
At HHA, our 3rd through 5th graders can dive into a world of creativity beyond the classroom! From learning ballet to designing costumes, and playing hand chimes to crafting amazing 2D and 3D art, our students explore a variety of artistic adventures in fun, once-a-week exploratory classes.
But that's not all! 🎭 Students can also audition for our exciting performing groups: the Art Chameleons, Chameleon Choraleers, AIMS Dance Company, and AIMS Players! These talented groups meet after school once a week as well as once a week during exploratory time to rehearse, and they get plenty of chances to shine on stage with multiple performances throughout the school year.
Join us in celebrating the arts and unleashing creativity at HHA! ✨ #ArtsAtHHA #CreativeKids #PerformingArts #LetsGetCreative #ArtsinEducationWeek
It’s more than painting a poster or singing a song—it’s students using the arts to think, learn, and show what they know.
When a dancer maps out math patterns…
When a playwright explores historical voices…
When a visual artist models ecosystems…
That’s arts infusion.
Let’s teach like artists. Let’s learn like creators.

🎉 Happy Musical Monday! 🎶
We are excited to kick off National Arts in Education Week with a celebration of creativity and talent!
Did you know our amazing tradition of the fifth grade Broadway, Jr. musical started with the Class of 2014-2015? Our very first show was Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Jr. Since then, every fifth grade class has joined in on this special tradition!
All fifth graders audition for the annual musical by memorizing a monologue, singing, and dancing. Every student gets involved—whether they’re cast in a role, are part of the ensemble, or are on the tech crew creating the magic behind the scenes.
This year, our fifth graders are thrilled to present the fun-filled musical, Junie B. Jones the Musical, Jr., on stage at Goose Creek High School in February!
Let’s celebrate the arts together all week long! 🌟
On Friday parents attended Muffins with McAlister. They got a peek into what is going on in the classrooms, and had the chance to ask Mrs. McAlister questions.
Thank you to everyone who came out. We are looking forward to the next one!
It's high-five Friday!
This morning, our Chameleons were greeted by former Chameleons now Hawks!
Starting a Friday off with high fives and smiles is always awesome!
🎉 We kicked off this amazing School Spirit Day with high fives from our awesome Goose Creek High School cheerleaders and our fabulous Chameleon Mascot! 🦎 What a fantastic way to start our Friday! Did you know some of our Chameleons turn into Gators? Let’s keep the spirit going!
