The Paul Revere Difference:
Serving grades 9 – 12
As youth prepare to enter a large high school, the experience is often filled with excitement and anticipation. Questions arise: Will they make lasting friendships? Will they make wise choices? Will they have opportunities to shine? With the right support, they are on the brink of discovering their true potential. Every child deserves to feel valued and to thrive both academically and socially. Positive growth, coupled with challenges, builds character and lays the foundation for future success. Ultimately, our goal is to see the next generation find happiness and fulfillment.
While many high schools offer promises of school spirit and lively pep rallies, at Paul Revere Academy, we go beyond the surface to create a nurturing and supportive environment. Here, students aren’t just another face in the crowd; they are valued individuals in a setting that prioritizes safety, respect, and personal development. Paul Revere Academy, part of the Heritage family and one of Arizona’s first charter schools, offers a tuition-free education.
At Paul Revere, students receive personalized and holistic instruction that helps them excel both academically and emotionally. By instilling the enduring values of America’s Founding Fathers and Mothers—liberty, freedom, respect, hard work, honesty, personal responsibility, friendship, hope, and courage—we create a foundation for success. Our smaller campus and class sizes foster close-knit communities where students receive the attention they need from teachers who are dedicated to their growth.
Paul Revere Academy’s unique partnership with the East Valley Institute of Technology (EVIT) offers a truly comprehensive high school experience, all in one central location. At Paul Revere, students tak core classes such as History, Science, English Language Arts, and Math, while EVIT provides a wide range of Career and Technical Education (CTE) electives. By the time they graduate, our scholars are not only well-prepared to enter the workforce with confidence but also have the option to pursue dual enrollment and participate in sports. We provide abundant opportunities for students to engage, excel, and grow into independent, successful citizens.

Our History
Founded in 1995, Heritage Academy was the 4th Charter granted in the state of Arizona. Since then, we have grown to be an established, successful and safe school where academics & character development are the highest priority. We’ve been serving scholars in 7th – 12th grades for 27 years in Mesa, plus 6th grade for a few years at Maricopa, Laveen and Gateway JH/HS and have recently added grades K-5 to create the Heritage Academy Elementary at Gateway campus. We love what we do!
