My child attended Heritage 4 yrs. He had a learning disability no other public school had helped him. Even Special Ed could not accomplish the plans set. The amazing love & support from the staff at Heritage helped my child excel. He passed all Star testing promoting him to high school where he continued his academics, no longer needed Special Ed. After graduating from high school he attended college pursuing a Degree in Automotive. After completing he will then join the Air Force. I have since placed all other siblings at the same school & all are mastering the Education this school provides. I have another child attending a high school college program due to the Great staff teaching. I would definitely recommend this School to everyone.. THANK YOU MY BELOVED FAMILY @ HERITAGE ACADEMY WINDCREST.
