Christian Heritage Academy

has been established to meet the educational needs of children in a Christ-centered environment, with dedicated Christian teachers, in a spiritual, academic atmosphere. Our school uses the Accelerated Christian Education program, which is based on Biblical philosophy, individually-prescribed, self-instructional curriculum, and an advanced system of motivated learning.


During the course of a school year, CHA uses these eight characteristics to help each student:


CHRISTIAN ATMOSPHERE


 
  • All of our teachers are born-again Christians, with testimonies that honor our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
  • Each class begins the day with prayer and Bible reading.
  • Weekly chapel services are conducted for the entire student body, providing Christ-honoring music and a Bible message that encourages Godly living.


CHARACTER BUILDING


 
  • Each level of academic work examines 60 character traits of Christ in great detail.
  • Students are taught that hard work produces excellence.
  • Students are expected to take responsibility for personal academic progress.



ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE

 
  • Christian Heritage Academy proudly uses the Accelerated Christian Education curriculum.
  • Our curriculum presents "mastery-based learning", meaning that students cannot move forward without demonstrating at least an 80% comprehension level of the current lesson.
  • Each student's learning level and ability are taken into consideration, allowing the curriculum to be a custom fit for your child.



COMPUTER EDUCATION

 
  • Younger students utilize computer reinforcement for reading comprehension skills, foundational math skills, and word building.
  • Older students learn the latest Microsoft Office skills in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Windows OS.




INDIVIDUALIZED INSTRUCTION

 
  • At CHA, we realize that every child's development is different - physically, intellectually, and socially.
  • For example, a sixth grader might read anywhere from a fourth to  eighth-grade level. Math skills could also be higher or lower than their current grade.
  • The ACE curriculum diagnoses learning abilities and puts students in the appropriate grade in each subject.



STRUCTURED CLASSROOMS

 
  • The classroom environment must be conducive to learning for true learning to take place.
  • Using a system of marks and merits, a quiet, organized, loving environment is provided at CHA; each classroom is in full control of a teacher at all times.




PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT

 
  • Our curriculum and methods of instruction allow parents to see immediately how their students are progressing, and provide clear instructions on how to help at home.
  • Each class takes periodic field trips; we encourage parents to attend whenever possible!




PATRIOTISM

 
  • It is our belief that America is great because she was founded upon Biblical principles.
  • Patriotism is highly stressed at CHA. Each day begins with the Pledge of Allegiance and students are encouraged throughout the year to become productive citizens in today's world.
