Testimonials

"I like Heritage because of its nice teachers.  They keep everyone under control and will always help students who are in need of assistance.  They will also push everyone to do their best.  Everyone is usually nice to each other and helps each other. I really enjoy all the classes; most of all I enjoy PE, Math, and Language.  I guarantee that your child will love HCA as much as I do."

"Heritage Christian Academy has been such a blessing to our family. In fact, we can say that they have been an answer to our prayers. Last summer, we moved here from Ohio to fulfill our dream and “live the lake life”. I have one more year to work back in Ohio so I stayed back and my husband and son moved down here while our house is being built and we could get our son enrolled in school. We have never been apart before, my boys and I, and our son is (well was) very shy. Being rooted in our faith, we looked into parochial schools and found HCA. Right after our first visit, we knew this was the school for our son. Everyone here, the staff, students, parents, and administration have been so warm, welcoming, inclusive and friendly. Our son’s relationship with God has become so strengthened and present in his life. He is proud of his faith as well as himself. He has come out of his shell and has already made what my husband and I hope to be lifelong friends and relationships with the staff here at HCA. My husband would call me almost everyday during the school year to tell me how warm and kind everyone is to him as well. This has made my temporary separation from my youngest son and husband much more bearable for me to know that they are surrounded by such caring people. Heritage Christian Academy is proof that God is always with us and cares for us and will always help us find our way."

"My child has been a student at HCA for the past six years.  Those who work at the school truly care about each child.  It is wonderful that students have the opportunity to share concerns and requests, then pray together.  Teachers are willing to work with parents for the betterment of each child.  I am very thankful the for small class sizes and the individualized attention my child receives."

"When we moved to the area in 2005, we were strongly considering homeschooling our children. Being unfamiliar with the area or schools in the county, we began the search for academic opportunities. Not too long into the search, we found a small Christian school on top of the hill in New Tazewell. This school had opened one year prior to our move. Placing our three children in this school 10 years ago was the best decision in their lives that we made. They are very strong ethically and morally. Their love for God and mankind is amazing. This school provides so many wonderful opportunities. It has a strong academia, Jr. Beta Club (100% middle school students to qualify), music, foreign language, Chapel, and First Priority just to name a few.

And now, what's near and dear to our hearts: the sports at HCA. We have had one of the strongest girls basketball programs in the 1-A TMSSAA, and our boy's team is doing well also. Heritage offers cheerleading for all ages and middle school golf, which have been a wonderful addition to our school. We take pride that the players are very respectful on and off the court/course.

We just have one more thing to say about HCA: It is the most loving school we have encountered. There's no bullying or fighting and the kids really like and care for one another. This comes from the most important part of the school, our teachers, and administration. Without their loving skillful leadership, we would not be the school we are. Thank you! We love HCA!"
