Just a great school with great teachers all about God and country. Great education for my grandson.

My time as a student at Heritage Prep was invaluable! I attended this school from 5th-12th grade and graduated in 2011. I was able to participate in a myriad of school activities including sports, spelling bees, science fairs, and school choir. The academics were challenging enough to help me grow as a student and the teachers and staff were always available for encouragement and support. I love Heritage Prep!
