Welcome to Children's Academy of Hickory Flat

Since 1997, we have offered a christian, educational, and nurturing environment for preschool, pre-K, before/afterschool students in the Canton and Woodstock area. Our vision is to see children develop their mental, physical, spiritual and social skills within a loving, caring environment. We aspire to see the children leave us to attend public and private schools prepared for success in all areas. We are a family-owned and run company with owners on site daily. We are a Christian-based school and followers of Jesus Christ.
