Heritage Mission is a non-profit Christian boarding school for children who have been separated from their families.
We shepherd children with individualized instruction, and administer to the whole child, satisfying physical, academic, and spiritual needs.
Our mission is to love the Lord our God with all our heart, mind, and soul, to present the Gospel of our Lord to the world, to train children and Christian laymen to be witnesses, teachers, and servants, to provide a Christian boarding school for children in need of permanent housing, to provide Christian education for children that have difficulty functioning in the traditional classroom environment.
Heritage Mission School provides a unique form of specialized education for children in grades K-12.
Christian training and intense personal investment is a key for faltering students to do well.
Many incoming students have unique needs that require staff and volunteers to invest hundreds of hours of labor.
Heritage Mission seeks to lead students to become all that God wants them to be.
Additionally, most students that enroll at Heritage Mission are not working at grade level.
The school evaluates and places them at an appropriate level.
Bringing students up to grade level usually requires intense personal commitment and hundreds of additional hours of attention from staff and volunteers.
