Grace Academy vs. Heritage Academy

Our Mission: To enhance the God-given potential in each student through quality Christian education so they may be servants of Jesus Christ in the world.

Our Vision: To honor God by providing quality Christian education and experiences.

We believe faith and learning should work hand-in-hand, and Christian education is the key to producing graduates who will make a positive impact on the world around them.

As a private institution, it is our goal to provide all students in the tri-state area with a quality education by hiring the best teachers, and offering the best academic, athletic, and fine arts opportunities.

Grace Academy is accredited by both the Association of Christian Schools International and the Middle States Association Commissions on Elementary and Secondary Schools.

As a faculty and staff, we strive to glorify God by supporting Christian families in training and educating students so Christ may reign supreme in every aspect of their lives.

At Grace Academy, we see athletics as part of the holistic experience for middle and high school students. From the physical competition on the court, to the mental and emotional highs and lows in victory and defeat, we know ultimately that God has given us the ability and desire to use our talents and abilities to glorify Him in all we do - and we believe athletic experiences are a great place to practice this ultimate purpose.

Organized in 1969, Heritage Academy is a private, interracial, nonprofit, independent, Biblical Christian school.

It offers spiritual and academic standards to families in the tri-state area.

The primary objectives and purposes of the school are to train the student in the knowledge of God and the Christian way of life and to give the best education in all subject areas.

Heritage Academy's mission is to participate in equipping our students in all grades academically, spiritually, socially, and physically so that they may discern and live out God's plan for their lives.

Heritage Academy's curriculum is based upon the philosophy of Christian education which integrates Biblical truths with the truths of scholarship.

Ours is a traditional approach to classroom teaching with a carefully developed program designed to utilize the best of traditional education, with emphasis on phonetics and arithmetic.
