Welcome to Heritage Academy in Amesbury, MA, a private Christian
high school launching September 5, 2025.

We believe that a good education equips young people not only to learn well, but to live well. That is why our curriculum focuses on integrating the liberal arts, creative arts, and common arts into a life of formation and discipleship. Applications are currently open for the 2025-26 academic year.
