Financial Assistance for ESS Programs at Heritage

HOPE Fund

The Helping Others Pursue Excellence (HOPE) Fund has a unique purpose. Established in 2010, the HOPE Fund was inspired by Heritage’s first elementary principal, Mary Jane English (1931-2009). Mrs. English was a pioneer for academic enrichment. She had a burden for children with the intellectual capacity to advance despite being identified with a learning weakness that caused them to struggle in the classroom. Now, Heritage has a variety of academic enrichment programs, including one of the most robust Educational Support Services Departments among Christian schools. Through this scholarship, we honor and remember those who, like Mary Jane English, have instilled hope in the HCS community.

Kelley Erb Scholarship

Former Heritage student, Kelley Erb, was known around campus as a young woman with a heart of gold and a love for learning. In honor of her memory, a new scholarship fund has generously been established by the Erb family to carry on Kelley's legacy.

The Kelley Erb Scholarship Fund will provide five annual scholarships in the amount of $1,000 each to help provide funds for students to receive Education Support Services at Heritage Christian School. The scholarship is based on financial need for students who also meet the following criteria that exemplified Kelley's life:

• A heart to please God and serve Christ
• A passion for learning
• A strong work ethic toward education
• Evidence/progress toward significant improvement in learning
