Test Scores

One of the hallmarks of Heritage Christian School has been academic excellence.  The keys to that success have been an excellent faculty, quality curriculum materials, dedicated parents, and a good work ethic.  All of those factors have combined to produce outstanding test scores year after year.

Achievement Tests

Every spring our students take nationally standardized achievement tests (currently, Terra Nova 3rd Edition published by McGraw Hill).  Scores from these tests are reported in national percentiles with a score of 50 being the national average.  A score of 80 represents a score in the top 20% of students nationwide.  A total battery score is a compilation of scores in Reading, Language and Math.  The chart below shows the average total battery score over the last 15 years for each grade.  We’re very grateful to God for such a good academic record!
