History

Heritage Oak was founded in 1966 as a small preschool dedicated to offering a balance between strong academics and character education through teaching in the Carden tradition.  The original preschool soon grew to include the elementary grades, and by the late 1980’s, the original eight classroom facility located in had seen its best years.  In 1992, Phyllis Cygan, along with her husband, Greg, purchased the school and relocated it into a wholly remodeled former banking complex in Yorba Linda in 1995. The school’s name was changed to Heritage Oak Private School to reflect the new vitality and increase in scope as the school expanded. Most recently, Heritage Oak became a part of Spring Education Group.
