Dear Heritage Academy Heroes & Families,

 

We have reached the last quarter of our school year.  Please take time to enjoy Spring Break with your families during the coming week.  We will return on Monday, March 18th to complete the 4th Quarter.  We will also be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day on this day!  So, remember that your scholar(s) can dress in green to celebrate.  Please follow Heritage Dress Down Standards for this day.

An Open House is scheduled for Monday, March 25th from 5:00 – 6:00 p.m.  Please tell your friends and neighbors to visit.  We would love to give them a tour of our campus and provide them with information about our wonderful school.  

Big Truck Night is also coming on Thursday, April 25th from 5:00 – 6:30 p.m.  We will have a Boom Lift, Construction Truck, Fire Truck, and a Police Vehicle.  We’ll also have a blow up Bouncy House/Obstacle Course for children to enjoy themselves and more!  Tell your friends to join us!
