Overview
Catholic education is an expression of the mission entrusted by Jesus to His church and is concerned with the spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional, aesthetic, and physical growth of each child.
The goal of Annunciation Catholic School is to encourage and support each child to reach his potential in a multifaceted society.
Parents are the primary educators of their child and it is our task to assist them in this work.
Annunciation Catholic School recognizes the differences in students` abilities and potential and strives to develop: academic excellence, basic Christian attitudes and values, a strengthening of character, integrity through self-discipline, a desire for personal achievement and life-long learning, and a reverence for one`s-self, others and all creation.
At Heritage Academy, our mission is to provide high moral standards and academic excellence.
The board, administration, and faculty of Heritage Academy believe that every child should be provided with a good atmosphere for learning and with opportunities for developing sound moral and social values, physical fitness, and an aesthetic appreciation.
We believe that it is the responsibility of the administration and staff to provide the school experience that will teach each student personal responsibility and obligations as a contributing member of society.
Heritage Academy seeks a well-rounded education that will prepare students to have a superior foundation for higher education and provide them with opportunities for developing individual abilities.
