About Heritage International Academy

Heritage International Academy (HIA) was established in 2025 in Doha, Qatar, as an American international school serving students from Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12. The Academy was founded by a group of education leaders and consultants committed to providing a rigorous and inclusive learning experience that combines academic excellence, character development, and cultural appreciation.

The school was designed to align with Qatar National Vision 2030, emphasizing human development and preparing learners to thrive in a knowledge-based, globally connected society. HIA’s founders sought to create an institution that merges international best practices with the moral and cultural fabric of the Qatari and Arab context.

During its establishment phase, the Academy prioritized the creation of a comprehensive policy framework, professional faculty recruitment, and a well-defined academic structure anchored in the American Common Core State Standards (CCSS).

Within its first academic year (2025–2026), HIA achieved several milestones:

Adoption of CCSS frameworks across all grade levels and adopted the MOEHE curriculum for the 3 compulsory subjects ( Arabic , Islamic , and Qatar History)
Development of digital learning infrastructure and innovation laboratories.

Implementation of policies for child protection, inclusion, and data security.
Establishment of the Quality Assurance and Improvement Committee (QAIC) to lead self-study and accreditation readiness.
