This has not been a great school year for American Heritage Academy in Henderson NV. The homework load has gone up quite a bit. Several teachers without degrees and the knowledge of said subject are teaching. It's been hard to learn the material. I worry about my child moving on to college. This year 19 teachers and staff are choosing to leave this school. Never have I seen so much heartache at a school.

I am a Senior at American Heritage and I absolutely love it. I move from my hometown just to come to this school I was bully heavy at my old at hate be there, as soon as I came to American Heritage it changed my life. I have learned so many things and the teachers are so kind and are so will to help students. I use to be so shy but because of AHA I have found myself and my worth. I truly believe I would not be were I am today if I didn't come to American Heritage. I also feel safety and want to come to school at my old school I feel unsafe and unwelcome. AHA is a great environment I feel safe and want to come to school. I have absolutely love my time at American Heritage and I'm sad to leave.

This Private Christian school has allowed students, called scholars there, to earn the education they need. With the four R's–research, reason, relate, and record–scholars learn to think and think for themselves.

Our time at American Heritage Academy in Henderson has been deeply disappointing. While the school presents itself as a wholesome, values-based environment, our experience revealed a different reality.The homework load is extreme—so much so that it leaves students with very little time for anything...

We were at American Heritage Academy for 8 years. When we first attended for Kinderprep, there was very much a community and family feel to the school. Since it has been the priority of the administration to grow the school, the quality of the experience and gone down exponentially from year to year...

This is a great school a bit heavy on the home work due to only 4 days a week but great school, great students along with a healthy culture among the staff and parents. Leadership and character are traits which are highly encouraged, my daughters started at LMCA, but this is an overall better school...
