Heritage High School opened in August 2007 as the Perris Union High School District’s third comprehensive high school. The agriculture program at this school has had a very strong and growing agriculture program since that time. The program has grown from 200 students in its first year of operation to 602 students, roughly one-quarter of the schools population. During that time, the program also grew from one instructor to four.

The District applied for and received funding in the amount of $2.25 million for the agriculture program through the Career Technical Education (CTE) Proposition 1D competitive grant program. Together with matching funds, this $6.1 million state-of-the art Agricultural Research Center (ARC) was built. The project includes a 6,561 square foot Agriculture Science Building which will house two Animal Science Laboratories and one Research Laboratory. In addition to the main Agricultural Science Building, a greenhouse, shade house, rabbit barn, laying barn and finishing barn are also included within this project. The entire project is immersed within a plethora of outside land laboratory facilities including pastures, orchards, livestock breeding and growing areas.

The entire ARC allows for the laboratory space that is needed for current and expanded course offerings in Plant & Animal Science, Agricultural Biology, Art and History of Floral Design, Advanced Floral Design, and Agriculture Earth Science and to accommodate future offerings in Veterinary Science, Computers in Agriculture, Agriculture Chemistry, Agriculture Government, Agriculture Economics, Landscape Nursery Production, Landscape Construction, Nursery Greenhouse, and Ornamental Horticulture.

Agriculture teachers now have the opportunity to teach, and students to learn in an environment that personalizes learning and connects that knowledge to relevant, real-world projects. Whether students plan to further their education in community colleges, technical schools or four-year colleges and universities, receive on-the-job training, or pursue careers in the military, the agriculture program was designed to prepare a diverse range of students for successful post-secondary educational and/or career experiences.
