Heritage Academy is a great school for children in need of a smaller, more family knit setting. In this school it'll be hard to not know almost everyone's face/name. The teachers and staff at this school are great and will do everything needed to help your child succeed.

I love heritage as a school and as a second home. It's safe, I can always go to my teachers or administrators for help if I need to and can always speak my mind. I love the community of peers and the teachers who guide us into adulthood. My classes have almost always been wonderful and the teachers are always ready to help if I'm struggling with something.
