Tours & Retreats
Heritage Academy offers our scholars opportunities and experiences, outside of school hours, that help build character, learn new skills, and provide memories that will last a lifetime. These experiences are packaged into “Tours” and have been part of the Heritage Academy experience for the past 28 years.

Liberty Study Tour
In the same spirit as the Independence Tour, the “Liberty Study Tour” takes high school scholars (11th and 12th-grade only) to numerous sites that are meaningful to our country’s historical foundation in Massachusetts and New York. Typically this tour takes place in October each year. Our Gateway campus is next scheduled for the Liberty tour during the fall of the 2024-2025 school year.
Junior High Arizona Tour
Every spring, the 7th and 8th grade scholars are invited to attend the Jr. High Arizona Tour. This tour focuses on science and history in Arizona, and tour groups alternate between traveling to Southern Arizona and Northern Arizona. Itinerary destinations in northern Arizona may include the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Sunset Crater, the Grand Canyon, and Sedona. Destinations in southern Arizona may include the Queen Mine in Bisbee, the Pima Air and Space Museum, and Karchner Caverns.
Information about the next Jr. High Arizona Tour, which will take place in April 2023, will be forthcoming.
