History
Heritage Heights Elementary was built in 1971. The school was originally constructed as an "open school", meaning that were no permanent walls dividing classrooms. Eventually, concrete walls would be installed into each room.[1] Grade levels are divided into separate pods at different corners of the building.
In January 2014 Heritage Heights was up for closing because of being too expensive to run. After one Board of Education meeting in March 2014 it was decided that Heritage Heights would stay open on a 5 to 2 vote.
