HAYDEN CANYON CHARTER SCHOOL (HCCS) is a tuition-free public charter school located in Hayden, Idaho, serving students in grades K–8. Founded on the principles of classical education, the school emphasizes a structured, content-rich curriculum that focuses on core subjects such as mathematics, science, literature, and history. Their educational philosophy is rooted in building a strong foundation of knowledge, fostering critical thinking, and promoting the development of virtuous character traits within their student body.

The school is designed to offer an alternative to traditional district schooling by focusing on small class sizes and a tightly-knit community environment.
