Our Purpose & Mission

HCS exists to support and encourage Christian families in the high calling of biblical discipleship through Christ-centered home education by providing administrative help, mentoring, classes, and parent-driven activities, all while honoring family sovereignty.

Who is Heritage Christian School?

The Premier Choice for families who want a Christ-Centered Home Education.

Heritage Christian School (HCS) is a private school registered with the state of California. All of our students are enrolled under our “Private School Affidavit”, and in order to receive a diploma from HCS a student must have completed all the subjects and credits required by the state of California.

We ENROLL FAMILIES, not just a student.

PARENTS CHOOSE the curriculum that best fits their students. HCS does not tell parents which specific curriculum they must use. But we are here to help you choose if needed.

CLASSROOM OPTIONS

Class Days (a parent cooperative)
HCS Academy (hired classroom teachers on a per subject basis). Both of these choices are completely optional.

HCS facilitates GODLY EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITY and COMMUNICATION via:
