Heritage Christian Academy (HCA) is a Christian, evangelical college preparatory school serving students in PreK-12th grade in the Kansas City metro area. HCA’s two campuses are located four miles apart in the southwestern suburbs of Overland Park (PreK-5th) and Olathe (6th-12th). Established in 2010, HCA is a ministry of Redeemer Presbyterian Church (PCA).
HCA’s mission is to glorify God by serving Christian parents and their children while providing a high quality, Christ-centered educational program marked by academic excellence and the development of a biblical worldview and strong Christian character.
Since 2010, HCA’s enrollment has grown from 460 to 687 students. In addition to a full complement of honors and dual credit courses, HCA offers many opportunities for learning expansion and character development through fine arts, drama, art/design, athletics, co-curricular clubs and activities, robotics, and engineering design. Beyond the classroom, students participate in local and international service and missions projects. In 2018, HCA opened a new addition to their west campus, added a 6th grade, and launched new programming and facility upgrades including a new Black Box facility, STEM and science labs, and Makerspace.
Anticipating further growth, the Board and leadership team launched a 10-year Strategic Growth Plan for 2020-2030. The HCA Board seeks a leader who can wisely and collaboratively implement and further shape this plan. The next Head of School will bring best practices for shepherding growth while maintaining a vibrant spiritual culture of discipling covenant children and preparing them for a lifetime of walking with Christ.
