Christian Heritage Academy is a private Christian school, preschool through 12th grade, located in Northfield, in the northern suburbs of Chicago, offering academic excellence with a biblical worldview. Our mission is to provide an exemplary education and to equip children to be lifetime followers of Jesus Christ. We nurture in our students a deep love for Christ, a sense of wonder in His Word, ex

cellence in academics, and authentic servant leadership and character that reflect Christ to the world. In our preschool, we foster a love of learning and a sense of wonder in God’s creation, through a research-based, developmentally appropriate pedagogy and Christ-centered curriculum. In our commitment to academic excellence, our elementary school focuses on the foundational framework of each subject while building problem-solving, critical thinking and communication skills. Our middle and upper schools provide a rich, college-preparatory honors and AP curriculum, allowing us to encourage and challenge each student's intellect and heart. Our athletic programs develop Christian character and leadership on and off the court; and our arts programs excel, as students display their performance and creative gifts as an act of worship before an audience of One.

“Living curriculum teachers” seek to honor Christ as role models and mentors to students and infuse His word, prayer and application of His truths in all subject areas, producing leaders who love Christ, know His word and effectively articulate their faith to the world.

On May 23rd, one of our students had the incredible honor of making her debut at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall!

After placing 3rd in the American Protégé Piano and Strings Competition for her rendition of Claude Debussy’s "First Arabesque," rising senior Elise Ahn earned a coveted spot to perform in the winner’s recital on that historic stage.

Nerves were running high on the morning of the performance, but Elise remembered a lesson from Rev. Farish’s class and prayed that God’s grace would be seen through her performance.

God surely answered that prayer. Her performance was glorious, beautiful, and unforgettable! 🎼❤️

This past Wednesday, our school family came together to lift up one of our littlest Lions, 3-year-old Adam, in prayer. Adam was recently diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of leukemia, and his family is leaning on the Lord during this challenge.

Thank you to everyone who joined the gathering to pray for his healing, strength for his parents, and peace for the journey ahead. And thanks to for the shirts.

Keep praying, CHA! 🙏🏼🦁💛
