Where Faith Meets Education
Heart of a Child at Harmony is a Christ-centered elementary school serving families in the Harmony community of St. Cloud, Florida. We believe every child is uniquely created with purpose, and we are committed to helping students grow both academically and spiritually in a nurturing, faith-filled environment.
Through strong academics, caring teachers, and biblical values woven throughout the school day, children are encouraged to build confidence, develop character, and discover a lifelong love of learning. Everything we do is guided by a simple mission: educating hearts and minds while sharing the love of Jesus.

About us
Excellence in the classroom, rooted in the love of Christ.
In 2011, founder Ivette Mendez answered a calling God placed on her heart to invest in the lives of children. What began in a humble garage with a few students and a great deal of faith has grown into three thriving schools serving families throughout Central Florida.
Heart of a Child at Harmony is our first Christian elementary school, continuing that same mission in the Harmony community of St. Cloud. We believe every child is created with purpose, and we’re honored to partner with families as they build a strong foundation for the future.
We are here to serve. We are here to love. We are here to “see to the children” just as God instructed from the very beginning.

ACADEMICS
Programs Designed for Every Stage
Pre-K
Joyful, play-based learning focused on phonics readiness, number concepts, language development, and simple Bible lessons. During these important early years, children begin building the skills and confidence they'll carry with them into kindergarten and beyond.
Kindergarten – Grade 2
Many of our Kindergarten students are reading by early December. Using the Abeka curriculum, we help children build strong skills in phonics, math, writing, science, and Bible while learning in small classrooms where they are known, supported, and encouraged every day.
Grades 3–5
Upper elementary students continue to grow academically through advanced math, science, composition, American history, and biblical studies. Our goal is to help them become confident learners who are prepared for the opportunities and challenges ahead.
