From Our Principal

Thank you all for your overwhelming support of
academic innovation at Heritage High School. Through
your partnerships, we have been able to do far more than
we have previously as this newsletter will attest. We are
gearing up for our most ambitious redesign since opening
in 2010. Husky Academy 19 will unite our top freshmen
educators in an academy model directed at the specific
learning and transitional needs of our most vulnerable
learners- our freshmen. We have goals to increase GPAs
for all students, reduce failure rates and increase club
participation and school citizenship. We so appreciate
your continued support in these endeavors.
