KNOWLEDGE IN THE LIGHT OF THE RESTORED GOSPEL
American Heritage School exists to provide a private education with a Christian foundation. Academic excellence, responsible citizenship, and character development have been highly stressed from the School's inception. We seek to assist parents to teach their children all knowledge in light of the restored gospel and follow the admonition of Brigham Young to Karl Maeser when he started Brigham Young Academy, “remember that you ought not to teach even the alphabet or the multiplication tables without the Spirit of God.”

CHRIST AT THE FOUNDATION
All curriculum that we use seek to lay Christ and truths of the restored gospel at its foundation. We strive to strengthen faith by teaching students to look for God’s hand in all subjects- art, music, health, science. We teach English by reading sources that teach moral truths, and history as His Story (or Christ’s story) of preparing the earth for the restoration of the gospel and the Second Coming. DISCERN BETWEEN TRUTH AND ERROR
Additionally, American Heritage uses curriculum that expects academic excellence and prepares our students for a successful college experience. We do this through use of methodology that teaches scholars not just to memorize and regurgitate information but to read and understand difficult literature, reason and discern between truth and error, apply truths learned to their own lives and write persuasively and coherently. Finally, we use curriculum that teaches children to see God’s hand in the founding of America and the writing of our constitution. We want our students to understand that America is a chosen land, established and preserved by the hand of God. HONOR CODE
Each student acknowledges and commits to maintaining the standards set forth in the American Heritage School Honor Code.

A look back at Constitution Day at AHS!

A couple weeks ago students across campus spent a fun day learning about the United States Constitution, the principles of liberty it protects, and the men and women who helped shape our nation.

Constitution Day is always a meaningful day at AHS as we work to fulfill our mission to help students “develop a love, understanding, and appreciation for America and the Founding Fathers.”

First grade has been learning what living things need to survive and the incredible adaptations God has given His creations.

Students talked about physical adaptations in our own bodies, including our lungs, pupils, sweating, and even goosebumps. Then they explored how, as God's greatest creation, we can use our agency and intellect to create things that help us survive and make life more comfortable.

Students drew everyday objects from a bin and explained how each one helps us, from egg cartons that protect our food to insulated water bottles that keep water cold and fresh.

After all that discussion, the students decided that we really are the best living thing!

Kindergarten and first grade had plenty of fun in Exercise Science last week! Scooters, parachutes, balloons, partner activities, and lots of movement kept these young Patriots busy.

Sometimes PE is just plain fun.

Heart, Mind, and Body

Education at American Heritage School is about more than what a student knows.

Our mission is to help students develop their hearts, minds, and bodies as they work toward their divine potential. That means rigorous academics matter. So do spiritual growth, physical development, creativity, character, and the opportunities students have to discover and develop their individual gifts.

We want students to leave AHS not only knowing more, but becoming more of who God created them to be.

The annual Patriot Fitness Test (PFT) was held last month, with Patriots of all ages putting their fitness to the test!

Modeled after the Marine Corps Fitness Test, the PFT challenges students in cardiovascular endurance, strength, and core fitness through running, pull-ups or push-ups, and planks. From our youngest Patriots to our high school students, it’s always fun to see students challenge themselves and see what they can do.

Mrs. Farnsworth’s 4th grade class kicked off their field trips for the year with a trip to Timpanogos Cave National Monument! Students hiked up the mountain and toured the caves together. What a way to start the year!

Library day for PM Kindergarten!

Our littlest Patriots spent some time in the library learning from our librarian. And really, aren't they cute?

Throwback to the first day of school!

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a month since Patriots gathered on Patriot Field to kick off another school year with the traditional firing of the cannon.

This year brought a new tradition, too. Our seniors formed an arch for our kindergartners to walk through as they began their AHS journey. From our oldest students welcoming our youngest, it was a pretty special way to start the year.

Here’s to a great year ahead!
