About
Heritage Christian Academy (HCA) is a K-12 school located in NE Calgary with approximately 700 students representing over 125 Christian Churches.
Introduction
HCA is a safe place for students to discover what they believe. We welcome the tough questions and engage in real conversations - both in and out of the classroom. We provide excellence in academics, leadership opportunities, and everyday interactions with a biblical worldview.
We believe that experiences in missions, music, athletics, leadership, retreats, and field trips provide life-long memories. It is an opportunity for students to belong to a community built on trust, integrity, and respect.
HCA is a place for students to understand their identity in Christ and to become all that God created them to be. Many alumni have shared that their time at HCA equipped them well for Post-Secondary education and meaningful careers. Our current students are given many opportunities to put their gifts, talents, and leadership skills to use in the school and within the community.
Administration
Heritage Christian Education Society Calgary (HCESC) operates in partnership with Palliser School Division as a Faith-based Alternative Program. We are members of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the Canadian Council for Christian Charities (CCCC).

Beliefs
Statement of Faith
The following Statement of Faith defines the core beliefs and values of Heritage Christian Academy:
- We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible, authoritative, written word of God. 2 Timothy 3:16-17
- We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14
- We believe that the universe originated by the creative act of God as revealed in Holy Scripture, and that the form of every kind of life was fixed at the time of its creation. Genesis 1:1; John 1:1
- We believe in the true deity and true humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, His pre-existence, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His Ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His future visible return in power and glory. Colossians 1:13-20; John 1:14
- We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the only mediator between God and man. 1 Timothy 2:5
