I have done business with this school for many years and look forward to sending my children here when they are old enough. Very impressed with the leadership and how the staff handles themselves. From my perspective there is a very healthy culture here. I love doing business with these kinds of people.
The legacy of the faculty and staff ensure sound Biblical teaching. Very family oriented with training for parents, students, and guests. The graduates are fully equipped to be an American Christian leaders wherever God places them in society. Come and see for yourself.
I don't go to this school but I know people that do and they are really great people if you need a friend I bet someone would love to be your friend.
I am now an adult in my late 20s, and I home schooled through this school. The things I learned 1st through 4th through their program have paid off for a life time. I learned about similes and metaphors some where inbetween those grades; and I kid you not i didn't hear about it again until senior year!! ..because I ended up in a public school in the end. Haha The trips, science fair, and stuff was so much fun. The essays were fun I had freedom on choosing topics. The Shirley English program and the corny songs you learn have paid off for a life time and helped me in future school days a lot. I especially admired the English program I was on. I wish I could remember more or had more to say.
However I will say the location is very bad I know the area very well. I'd definitely homeschool through their system but definitely not send my kids their.
I just want to share an experience we had while attending a Friday night football game . My son and my self along with many many parents had a very humbling experience , one that made such an impression we shared it on Facebook , and I just want to share this with your school . I m from Watonga and while attending the game we was welcomed by Heritage we joined In Prayer and the National Anthem . Each and every player from Christian Heritage Academy played with such class and sportsmanship. After game was over our football players had one of Christian Heritage players join our boys in their locker room . This young man shared his heart and testimony and God . Our boys shared this with us parents . I just want to say you warmed our hearts you left such an impression on all of us . Thank you !
My family is new to CHA this year and we love it! We have 6 children attending and I am employed at CHA. The Lord is at work in this school and has His hand upon it. The staff and faculty are amazing! We have felt so welcomed and loved here.
Our family is extremely thankful for CHA. Their pursuit of Christ and integrity have left indelible marks on our children. Their unique approach to Biblical reasoning has equipped our children to engage the culture. Thank you!
Very disappointed in this school. It's very costly in comparison to our private school in Texas. And once you get in, they continue to ask for more money from your family constantly. And I do mean CONSTANTLY.
The facilities are quite dated. Teachers rooms are a cluttered mess while much money goes into upkeep of principal's, headmaster offices. Parents are expected to supply all the supplies - none of the school payment goes toward supplies. This includes supplies for the art and music classes. Both went without pencils for the students last year as well as basic art supplies!! And on top of parents being expected to supply these things we were not told till the last three weeks of school.
There is no gratitude from the staff for sending your children here.you and you student are told regularly that it is your privilege to attend, you must be grateful to be here and so on... My children were outstanding in academics and character...but still the attitude of the staff is one of "bow before me. We are better than you."
****My biracial child was bullied by the other students, fifth through eighth grade students who definitely knew better. My child was referred to as being adopted and when talking about our family members,fellow classmates would say to my child "they're not really your family by blood." Never addressed by any staff or corrected.****
You will be told how wonderful their academics are. However with all the curriculum I've personally worked with and with the education of our previous school, it fails in standard!! They believe their own lies and build up their own text books, failing to see that it falls behind what is expected for the financial investment you are making. As well as failing to look into other private schools and see that their curriculum is excelling.
On top of this, and much much more I could go on, it is in a very risky neighborhood with high crime and drug gangs. Students are exposed to hearing gun shots, seeing meth addicts walk by them at recess, even went into school lock down for mass violent attack directly across the street from the school.
The education and opportunities our son received at Christian Heritage Academy were outstanding. Every teacher and administrator was interested in investing in him not only to prepare him for college but for every aspect of life. The philosophy of sports and the manner in which CHA students conduct themselves on and off the field of competition is noticed and admired by visiting teams and parents. Excellence Is the standard in everything. Through the academic rigor at CHA, our son entered his freshman year of college this fall at a major university with 21 college credit hours earned by taking advanced classes at CHA. I highly recommend CHA!
I have experienced the vision of training American Christian leaders both as a classroom teacher, and as a parent of two graduated Crusaders. The heart of the school makes it distinctively different!
Our daughter is in 7th grade at CHA. She has made deep connections with the Teachers and Administrative Staff. She started here in the 4th grade and is challenged academically in ways the public school she was attending was not able to do (granted it was early in her education experience). Teachers have dedicated training time weekly and they invest in their educators. We love the biblical values taught and the community feel of the school. It is a Christ-centered school and the curriculum and extra-curricular activities model that philosophy.
My family chose to move to CHA several years ago because we wanted our children in a school that would allow them a good education in a Christian atmosphere where they would not be a nameless face in the hallways. In a few months, my son will graduate, with more than 12 hours of college credit, and I look forward to hearing one of his teachers, who know and love him, speak about him personally. This is just one example of CHA s focus on excellence and the impact it has had on our family.
Where to begin on telling how I feel about CHA? My 16 year old son is challenged daily to think deeply and critically! He is being encouraged to explore and fulfill the gifts and talents that have been given to him by God! The staff and teachers have exceeded our expectations in so many ways and we are so pleased with their forethought and preparation into each day of the school year! May God continue to bless this school that is really more like a family where each member has intrinsic value and is beloved! This is a school where Christ is King and grace and love are seen and felt!
Christian Heritage Academy extends the opportunity for students to grow in their understanding of a biblical worldview, student leadership and governmental principles. Although we enjoyed many aspects of CHA, it was not until my oldest children went to college that we were able to really appreciate the fruit of the constant training in a biblical worldview and the rigor of academics. Both of my kids thanked us for sending them to a school that prepared them for college studies and competing worldviews. It was God using the school, the home and the Church that laid priceless foundations in them. We are thankful it is part of our journey and that we have one student still attending CHA today.
My experience with CHA has been absolutely fantastic. Everyone with whom I had contact from administration staff, elementary headmaster, headmaster of the school, to teachers and parents, was very friendly, helpful, informative and professional. My daughter had quite a troubled school history from bullying to moving a lot, making her school experience a dreadful part of her childhood. As a parent I was determined by the leading of God to find a school, which would be able to give her the education and care which she deserves and needs. CHA came up several times through internet searches as well as through several friends who either went themselves or whom sent their children on this school. There weren t any negative reports apart from that they are stricter and more serious about schooling then a regular public school. That wasn t a problem to me at all, since I was quite disappointed by the public school I ve sent my daughter to, in the school district of south Oklahoma City. The enrollment, testing and application process, was some work but very thorough and thoughtful, it gave me the impression that they really care about what they are doing. The interview with Headmaster of the elementary school Mrs. Low was wonderful, she had so much care, listened very well to my situation with my personal needs and infused the faith and hope through fellowship and prayer into me which I really needed at that point in my life, seeing her interact with Lana gave me the assurance that she will be very well cared for. Also the interactions with the office and secretary staff were very pleasant, while I waited for the testing I drank coffee and had several pleasant conversations, it is a very warm family atmosphere. I feel and felt always welcomed.
My daughter has been attending the school since August 2019 so it has been 2 months so far. It is just getting better and better, we went from my daughter crying every day while being bullied in public school to a slow process of her slowly opening her heart again to learning and people around her, trusting her teacher again. Her process is fantastic! We are now at a point were my daughter says that she loves her school. She got integrated very quickly and has been received with love and care. Many people say that the finances are a huge burden, i believe and I was proofed that everything is possible if God is leading. My personal opinion and standpoint is that I have spent my money on worse things then my daughters education, you check with yourself.
My main point or burden in writing this review is that I want the person who reads this and considers wether CHA is the right school or not to know that there is care and prayer going out for every single person from the actual student to the parent of the student. That the days of being frustrated with careless teachers and school administrators could be over. Not only the education offered is fabulous but also the emphasis of character as well as proper humanity development. The keyword is real CARE. I have been born and raised in Germany but I have never seen or heard of a school like this, neither did I have the privilege to attend a high standard school as this one. It s my honor as a parent to make this possible
Thank you for taking the time to read
I have loved growing up at Christian Heritage Academy. Even in elementary I could see my teachers' love for the Lord in how they taught and loved us. As I've come into high school, we've talked about the Bible and the Lord in deeper ways than I ever had before. I've learned to defend and discuss the existence of God, the reliability of the Bible, morality, and so many more topics. If you're considering CHA I would highly recommend you putting your child there. What I have learned and will continue to learn at CHA is something that I will be able to use in college and in my life after that. What an amazing school that loves the Lord and wants its students to love Him and share with others about Him too!
Great school! I am so thankful for the lovely Christlike spirit and for the emphasis on Biblical principles.
I go to this school and it was way better than my other school. Great education.
