Heritage Academy is improving the education of children who are typically zoned for poor performing schools with high incidence of behavioral misconduct. We also are addressing the spiritual development of the children through Bible instruction and Christian community.
Both of these efforts lead to am improved quality of life for the children and their families.

Our strategies include:
-a rigorous curriculum with scaffolded support
-a caring and committed staff who will do whatever it takes
-implementation of best practices in instruction
-an active Arts program
-involvement of community in providing scholarships and positive afterschool programs and summer camp experiences

Heritage Academy is committed to executing its program with excellence. Our staff is chosen for its credentials, calling and commitment for executing the mission of the school. The undergo continuous professional development to keep current with best practices. They collaborate weekly to stay informed about the children they serve.
The development office is active in getting the message about our mission to the community. Through its efforts, our revenues has grown by at least 20% every year.
We actively recruit more Georgia citizens to participate in the tax credit scholarship program. This effort has grown the participation by 50%.

We monitor student progress in 5 ways:
1. progress and report cards
2. standardized test scores
3. admissions into competitive high schools
4. contact with alums during high school
5. college admissions and post-secondary education

We have completed the goals of our Strategic Plan from 2007. We completely renovated our current, historic school building. We are now a K-8 school with 210 students.

We are in the process of becoming accredited by Advanced Ed (formerly SACS). We are also investigating the addition of a 3 and 4 year old program.
