As we start another school year, we are beginning our 60th year of Christian school ministry to greater Indianapolis! I am grateful that God established Heritage Christian School in 1965 to partner with Christian parents like you in the education and training of their children. Coming to campus this morning, the back-to-school transition began with dramatic changes to our routines, but we couldn't be more excited for what God has in store for us. Thank you for the privilege of serving you & your family this school year.
From the Head of School
Dr. Brian Dougherty, Ed.D, came back to Heritage in 2023 as our Head of School, bringing over 30 years of experience in Christian education. Before this, he spent a decade here as a teacher and Middle School Principal before leading other Christian schools in Indiana and Georgia. Dr. Dougherty holds degrees from Purdue and Ball State, including a Doctorate in Educational Leadership. He and his wife Rachel have two children, Colin and Caroline, who are both Christian school grads. He's deeply committed to guiding the next generation with a Biblical approach to education.
Heritage Christian School is a special place. Our mission is to Glorify God, Disciple Students, and Pursue Excellence. It is life-changing and eternal. It sets us apart. We come from different backgrounds and different churches. We each have a different story, but your story and the story of God at work at Heritage Christian School are now woven together. We are united in Christ...and that makes us family. I am blessed to be sharing the Heritage journey with you.
