Our Mission Statement
Heritage Academy is dedicated to youth, their growth and development. The purpose of education is to build strong character. Strong character is reflected in strong families, strong communities and a strong nation.
While teaching the academic disciplines, Heritage Academy is dedicated to instilling into the minds and hearts of today’s youth a knowledge of and respect for the ideals and values of the great men and women of history, including those who founded the American nation.
As today’s rising generation gains an appreciation of these people of accomplishment, they will be ready to provide the selfless service to their fellow citizens and to their country which will be required in the coming years to assist in preserving America’s greatness. Heritage Academy exists to this end.

Hello Heritage Families with driving scholars! There are issues with scholars parking in spots that they do not own for the school year. The only scholars who can park in scholar parking are those who have paid for their spot. Unfortunately, we will have to start placing a boot on those cars who are parking illegally. You have been warned.

SCHOLARS SHOULD NOT BE SIGNED OUT BETWEEN 2:30-3:30 PM
Need to schedule an appointment for your scholar during school hours? We ask that you try and schedule appointments on Fridays when the scholars are out of school. We know this isn’t always possible due to days and hours of operation, however due to our driveline, we are not able to sign scholars out after 2:30 pm. If you have an appointment for your scholar, we will need you to pick them up before 2:30 pm or wait until school is out to pick up your scholar.
DRIVELINE REMINDER!
PLEASE remember that 0ur driveline is being monitored closely this year. No one can park on the street outside of our campus before the driveline. Parents must park in our “cell phone lot” until our gates are open at 3:15. Our city and our neighbors need your cooperation.
