Dear Heritage Families,

Next year we are hoping to partner with Lexington, the private school that will be located across the street that educates students with Autism Spectrum Disorder, in the Best Buddies Program. This is a wonderful program where we will match Heritage students 1-1 with a student at the Lexington Campus. The goal is to build a friendship. Students will be able to text, call, etc.. with one another weekly. We will be doing monthly activities such as lunches, going to the movies, etc…

Please watch the following video for more information.

Right now, we are looking to see if there is enough interest in this program to implement it. Please fill out the following form to help us determine your interest.

Thank you!

Murder’s in the Heir by playwright Billy St. John is an audience interactive play set in modern times at the mansion of tyrannical billionaire Simon Starkweather. In this hilarious and masterfully entertaining murder mystery play, almost all the characters have a motive, weapon, and opportunity to commit the unseen murder. And, the audience helps decide whodunit by voting at intermission for your prime suspect!
