STORY

In the beginning …

As every epic story begins, you’ve met us in the middle.

The Heritage Academy team is working together to launch a high school in Amesbury, MA for fall 2025 beginning with two classes, ages 14-16. But our vision began back in 2020:

Salome Palmer founded Heritage as a summer program in partnership with Gordon College for students to encounter an education that encompassed not only their heads, but also their heart and hands. This program has grown over four years, as students from across the country, and now the world, have been transformed by discipleship that orients them towards loving what is beautiful, good, and true and imagining a hope-filled future, for not only themselves, but their families, churches, and communities.

From this seed grew the initial concept of Heritage Academy—a learning community centered on these same ideals.

… until now

Our vision:

Heritage Academy aims to integrate our intellectual, spiritual, and cultural inheritance by cultivating the renewal of the mind, heart, and land and thereby empowering students to become dynamic thinkers, integrated worshippers, and creative stewards of the world around them.
