4/6/2026
It is a good school with a very typical high school experience. You get plenty of opportunities from this school that can help you later in life and get your career started. You get many internships and AP opportunities that you can't get at every school.

Heritage High School has brought me plenty of useful life experiences from managing my schedule to making new friends. My best experience would be meeting all of the amazing people and friends that I've made whilst attending. There isn't a specific worst experience I've had at Heritage throughout the years because everything has been smooth and overall good for me and everyone around me.

High School taught me how to believe in myself. The best part of high school was participating in school sports.

great school and community. I highly recommend
2/16/2017
50% of the teachers don't care. Discipline problems get swept under the rug. Guidance counselors do not provide equal assistance to all students who are trying to apply to colleges.
1/13/2017
Heritage is a fantastic school. The teaching and administrative staff are fantastic and the community is actively involved in the schools. There are also fantastic electives!
8/27/2016
Heritage Rocks! It's a great school that while not perfect is one that is highly engaged in the community and works to truly prepare it's students for the Real World. Loosing Dr. Savage as a principal was a great loss to the school this year but I know the staff and community will rally to continue...
