Heritage Academy’s mission statement:

We are dedicated to youth, their growth and development, and believe in building sound character through strong families, strong communities, and a strong nation.

While teaching the academic disciplines, Heritage Academy is dedicated to instilling into the minds and hearts of our youth knowledge of and respect for the ideals and values of the great men and women of history, including those who founded the American nation.

As they gain an appreciation of these people of accomplishment, they will be ready to provide the selfless service to their fellow citizens and to their country which will be required in the coming years to assist in restoring America’s greatness.

Heritage Academy exists to this end.

A NOTE FROM Mrs. Udall:

Hello Heritage Families,

We love each of our seniors and are so proud of their achievements.

Thank you for the way you support our scholars and teachers. We hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Sincerely,

Heidi

Bethany Osborne Receives Rio Salado’s High School ACE (Achieving a College Educating) Scholarship

“Graduating with a college degree before my high school diploma means that I’ve reached my goal and had the opportunity to participate in an experience that has helped me get further ahead,” Osborne said. “It proves to me that I have the ability to work hard and accomplish difficult things.”

She said dual enrollment taught her how to be a successful student. “It challenged me and helped me gain skills like perseverance and patience,” Osborne said. “It allowed me to use my time wisely by gaining credit for both high school and college at the same time.” In addition to her classes this year, Osborne participated in dance, art, tennis, Pilates, and her school’s spring musical presentation of Little Women.

“Participating in the ACE program has given me the opportunity to take interesting courses and to have a broader education,” Osborne said. “My goals for the future include going to university, getting my bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, and becoming a forensic psychologist,” Osborne said.
