*SCHOOL-WIDE*
First Friday is Spirit Friday
This Friday is the first Friday of the month that we are in class, which means it's Spirit Friday! Students, faculty, and staff may wear Spirit Wear (a Heritage shirt or a shirt in one of our school colors, navy or maroon) and appropriate jeans (no holes or distressing.) Go Warriors!
Spirit Wear Orders
The designs are completed and the online store will be up soon! Watch your email for details.
Remind Instructions
Heritage Academy will use REMIND to alert you of changes in school hours via text or email as you choose when you sign up.
Solar Eclipse
Heritage Academy has carefully considered the pros and cons and has decided to designate Monday the 21st of August a satellite/school at-home day. In this way, students can spend time at home with their families to experience the total solar eclipse.
In addition, it will be important for students to observe Tuesday as its scheduled satellite school day; thus, homework will be expected for students on the 22nd of August.
Last, coaches may or may not cancel practice; yet, attendance will be optional for athletes, as we want our partner parents to make that call.

Old School Values, New School Schedule
Heritage Academy is a University-Model® School, facilitating students' access to excellent education, increased time with family, and opportunities for growth toward maturity while providing a cost-effective, college-preparatory education. In an age where family life is becoming increasingly fragmented, the unique structure of the model also serves to “turn the hearts of fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers ” (Malachi 4:6).
