News and Updates from HCS

Association Meeting – February 3



Join us on February 3 at 6:30pm for the Heritage Christian School Association Meeting as we share an exciting look at the future of our school. This gathering will celebrate God’s faithfulness, reaffirm who we are, and unveil bold plans that will shape our school and community for generations to come.


The evening will feature Strategic Planning updates in four key focus areas that guide every decision we make:

  • Foundations – Reaffirming the philosophy, guiding principles, mission, core values, and governance that ground Heritage Christian School and set us apart.
  • Formation – Highlighting how transformational experiences equip our students to live as Kingdom workers—impacting the world today and far into the future.
  • Facilities – Casting vision for how we will maximize and steward the facilities God has entrusted to us through intentional, strategic master planning.
  • Finances – Demonstrating faithful stewardship of resources and the steps being taken to strengthen our financial resilience for long-term impact.


A key highlight of the evening will be the introduction of our Capital Campaign - a clear and compelling vision for growth rooted in faith and purpose. Through powerful case studies, campaign resources, and clear next steps for engagement, you’ll see how expanded, state-of-the-art facilities will strengthen Christ-centered education, support the growing needs of our school and the Corridor community, and extend our reach to more families.

Basketball Concession Workers Needed


If you are a basketball or cheerleading parent, love the game of basketball, or just want to serve at Heritage, we are looking for volunteers to work concessions at our basketball games this winter. All the jobs are easy to learn and any training needed before the game can be provided. High school students can also volunteer for silver cord hours. If you also have a responsible 4th-8th grade child that you think would be helpful, you can sign them up to work a shift with you as well. To sign-up, please use the sign-up genius link below.

 

Basketball Concessions Sign-up

Pray for the Nations

 

Please continue to pray for global workers Michael and Mary Pretorious and for our Compassion International sponsored child, Kossigan, from Togo. Students are welcome to contribute towards Kossigan’s sponsorship (through Compassion International) by giving money in their classrooms or the office. Thank you!

 

Please pray for:

·        Protection (physical, spiritual, emotional, etc.)

·        Boldness (to share Jesus authentically and powerfully)

·        Peace (people of peace to help share the Good News)

·        Assurance (that God is with them and is for them)
