We love Christian Heritage Academy! Our daughter has attended CHA for nine years and has had outstanding experiences each year. The teachers, administration and staff genuinely care about each student. They provide a warm, loving and enriching atmosphere for academic, spiritual, social and emotional growth. Academics are strong, as reflected in the test scores. There are many opportunities for involvement with clubs, athletics, and fine arts. If you are looking for a top-notch Christian education, this is the school for you!

My daughters recently graduated from the Upper School and we could not be more pleased with the entire experience. Beyond excellent academic preparation for college, terrific athletic and club opportunities, and lifetime friendships with students and teachers, the authentic Christ-centered environment was worth every penny. Can't say enough about our tremendous experience - we would do it again in a heartbeat!
A great school that is focused on spiritual development and academic excellence, from PK all the way to 12th grade. Godly role model teachers, smaller class size and loving environment allow students to feel safe/secure, and they learn, excel, serve and lead from the youngest to oldest (leading chapel, missionary trips, local pantry, etc.). They've been able to challenge very gifted students and also have a learning resource center. New leadership has done a lot to inspire staff, are hiring new teachers, starting many new programs (new clubs, summer camps). Glad to see that the mission stays the same but commitment to excellence is stronger than ever.
They have a good selection of AP classes for a new high school-and with the excellent academics, winterim, leadership opportunities and great recommendations from teachers who really know them, my friends' kids have gotten into U of Chicago, Northwestern and Wheaton, just to name a few of the top secular and Christian schools.
