Why should you send your children to a Christian school? This is an extremely important question for parents to answer. The choice we make in the education of our children will have lifetime ramifications and will affect all other areas of our children’s lives. A Christian school offers several positive aspects that prepare students for future effective Christian lives:
Support Group of Christian Parents
Smaller Student/Teacher Ratios
Outstanding Academic Achievement
Integration of Faith and Learning
These are just a few of the advantages of Christian school education. Heritage Christian Academy does not represent a guarantee. We provide an opportunity for an education that is distinctively Christian in a school that works in partnership with Christian families. We prepare children and young people for college by providing a high standard for instruction, achievement, and character. We prepare them to fulfill God’s call in all aspects of their lives by recognizing and addressing the needs of the whole person.
HCA recognizes that "unless the Lord builds the house, the workers labor in vain". Despite our best efforts and the efforts of those Christian families who partner with us, the only way our mission will be accomplished in the lives of our students is by the grace and favor of our Savior.
Heritage Christian Academy is about the ministry of educating children to be spiritually strong and to excel academically.
Sincerely,
Dr. Ron Taylor
