This a great school!!!!! There is great leadership in the school . My child has never been happier. I have great confidence in the teachers.
I think Heritage is a GREAT school. My parents & other parents started Heritage Academy for me my 3rd grade year. I love what it stands for and the way Heritage prepares my children for college and life skills. I would highly recommend Heritage to any new person coming to Columbus, MS.
My child has been in the public school system and has recently enrolled at Heritage as a high school senior. Our experience, already, has been phenominal! The school is focused on educating the "whole" child, the administration and teachers are hands on, approachable, positive and the parents are so involved. Heritage has the most welcoming atmosphere I have ever seen. This atmosphere is so conducive to learning and excelling. I look forward to this year and this experience. Should have made this decision a long time ago!!!
2 of my children have attended Heritage Academy and I have been very pleased with their education and the positive influence the school has had on them. My daughter graduated this past year and I was extremely impressed with her ACT score.
Heritage Academy has excellent teachers. The Head Master is very very engaged and provides to needed support and guidance. Heritage provides a great enviroment for kids to learn.
All three of my children attend Heritage Academy. The level of education my children receive at Heritage will take them far in the world. Thanks to the faculty and staff for providing quality education in a safe Christian environment.
Heritage Academy has the highest academic standards in this area. Heritage Academy was one of the first schools in the state to partner with Apple and provide Macbooks for each high school student.
My children have been attending Heritage Academy for the past 6 years, and we have been very happy with the academic excellence that Heritage is known for. The teachers and Head Master care very much about each and every child.
Yes, there are some excellent teachers at Heritage Elementay School, but I was very disappointed with way things were run at the High School Level, as the Headmaster catered to a few select parents. Some of the High School teachers should have retired long ago and/or stayed retired from the public school system instead of being hired on at the private sector. The present counselor does not like the students and they know it, as she shows her favortism openly; there are too many cliques and bullying. For the amount of tuition being paid the education level is behind other states by about two years.
Heritage Academy has been a wonderful experience for our family. The classroom environment is both challenging and enjoyable for the children. Parents are well informed about student activities and are encouraged to participate. The students are under the guidance of great leadership! The academic program at Heritage is kept at a high standard and the test scores prove that. We wished we had transferred to The Heritage Family years ago!!!
