School Reviews

Although this is a great school, the tuition listed is inaccurate. Class sizes were only small this year because of covid, but there are 18-25 students in some classes during most years. The teachers are fantastic and care about kids.

I have taught at HCA for many years and fully support its mission, vision, and partnership with the families that are here! The staff is a family in itself, and we pass that warmth and caring onto the parents and children we are privileged to serve. We strive to identify each child's individual learning style and support them academically, socially, and spiritually with the resources we have. Our small class sizes allow for students to receive the attention they need to succeed. HCA has a legacy and a unique quality you will be hard pressed to find elsewhere.

We have been at HCA for 8 years. My child excels in all subjects relative to peers. Is testing at 12th grade level in 6-7th grade. Love the smaller intimacy which allows closeness and involvement of all parents. Spiritual values & morals a focus and integrated into all subjects. Variety of arts, xtracurricular and sports always offered.

Heritage is a wonderful school and all three of my children have thrived here. The quality of education is excellent and well prepares students to go on the high school. The teachers and staff are loving and really care about the student and their family as well. The small class sizes afford the teachers to give individual attention and really know the students. The small size of the school is an advantage allowing the school to have a family atmosphere. There are not large sports programs, but sports are offered, along with music, band and choir. Heritage students score highly on standerdized tests and excell accedemically.

HCA is an extraordinary place to have your children attend school! The faculty and staff do an amazing job of investing into the lives of each student, spiritually and academically, and the results are priceless. HCA has a wonderful, family-like atmosphere where deep friendships are developed and faith-based morals, values and service are instilled into the hearts of our children.
