Real Parent Stories

"When we first moved to Gillette, finding a good school for our children was a top priority. We felt that a Christian education was important, and decided on Heritage Christian School. After 4 years (and 3 kids) at Heritage, we no longer believe it is just important — we now know it is essential. Essential that our children are surrounded by biblical truth, essential that they are nurtured by believing teachers, and essential that our family faith and values are reinforced at home and at school.

We are so thankful for Heritage Christian School! Not only do our children come home each day with smiles on their faces and top-tier education in their heads, they come home with the knowledge of Jesus Christ in their hearts and minds, which is the whole point."

"As a former homeschool mom, I didn't like the idea of my kids being in school, but when I saw the small class sizes, the mission of the school, and I recognized a few of the teachers and knew personally that they were true Christians that would follow the Lord as they taught my children, I KNEW that Heritage was the place for us!"

"HCS has been life-changing for our family. It is amazing to see how God is centered in our children's education. The teachers are committed to helping our kids build their foundation on Jesus Christ every day and we absolutely love being a part of it!"

"Our family has been involved with HCS for around 8 to 10 years. We started sending our oldest son for just art and PE. We had been homeschooling and wanted another outlet for him to get exposure to other kids and activities. Shortly after that year, we started sending our younger kids for preschool and kindergarten. Then we had chosen to go back to full homeschool.

During some really hard times, HCS opened their doors to us again and allowed our kids to attend full time in the middle of the year. My kids have attended there full time since the beginning of 2022 and we will never look back. The amount of personal growth I have seen in each of my kids is astonishing. My absolute favorite part, how they are all growing in their faith. When I see my kids choosing to stop and pray, knowing it's the best and most important thing in all situations, my heart is full. When they ask questions about God, scripture, their faith; when they continually grow in compassion and kindness for others; nothing can truly compare. I am so thankful to have a school that builds that in their students.

I have also now worked full time at the school for the last 2 school years. It has been a wonderful place to work. I appreciate the camaraderie, the ability to stop and pray for one another and over our students together. I enjoy being able to share my faith with my students and come alongside them in their own faith journey. All I can say is thank you. Thank you HCS for all you do."
