Our School's Story
The Christian School at Castle Hills seeks to lead students to know Christ and make Christ known.
Our roots and earliest beginnings started in 1961 with the establishment of a private Christian preschool and kindergarten. In 1981, Dr. George H. Harris and a group of interested members of Castle Hills First Baptist Church founded our school. In 1987, we graduated our first class and were accredited by the Association of Christian Schools International (ASCI).
Our current enrollment is approximately 800 students in preschool through 12th grade. The Christian School at Castle Hills has had over 1,100 graduates, who today are dotted around the globe leading and serving their world. Among them are physicians, lawyers, engineers, business leaders and entrepreneurs, pastors, teachers, and missionaries. The biblical worldview and servant leadership principles they were taught at Castle Hills are now influencing their generation.
Castle Hills has a long track record for academic achievement. Across the years, 98% of our graduates have been college-bound. Routinely, Castle Hills classes score more than two years above national averages on standardized testing. More than 85% of students in recent years have received academic scholarships to colleges or universities.
Our pledge at Castle Hills is to give every graduate the edge for success in the university environment. Our four-year college prep high school is academically rigorous and focused on both spiritual and leadership success in life. Students have the opportunity to participate in a four-year Leadership Academy to set a foundation for serving and leading in the professional life, church, family, and life!
The faculty, staff, and leadership of The Christian School at Castle Hills are a uniquely gifted and dedicated group of professionals, many with advanced degrees in their fields. The bond between faculty and students is warm, caring, and supportive. It is so much more than instruction; our teachers inspire the lives of our students.
