Purpose and Philosophy
The ultimate purpose of Heritage Christian School is to glorify God. Excellent education – academically, spiritually, socially/emotionally, physically, and culturally – is provided from a Biblical point of view to assist parents as they raise their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. The school strives to assist its students to develop a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.

The school’s emphasis is to teach the Word of God, to exalt Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and to facilitate students’ spiritual growth by leading them to place God at the center of their lives.

The school provides a carefully planned educational program with a goal of preparing students to be lifelong learners.
Physical Development
Combinations of programs and activities are designed to meet age appropriate skill levels through physical education classes and after-school sport activities.
