It is a Шаблон:Convert campus located in Spring Branch in western Houston, Texas, at the intersection of Beltway 8 and Kempwood Drive, inside Beltway 8 and outside Interstate 610.[1]

History

Шаблон:Split section Houston Christian High School was founded in 1970 under the name Northwest Academy.Шаблон:Citation needed The city of Houston's extension of a street to the new school was cited as an example of government aid to a segregation academy.[2]

In 1998, Northwest Academy (K-12) split into First Baptist Academy and Houston Christian High School.Шаблон:Citation needed Multiple churches collectively cofounded Houston Christian to cater to residents of the western portions of Greater Houston.[3] First Baptist Academy moved to a location next to Houston First Baptist Church,Шаблон:Citation needed and Houston Christian remained at the Northwest Academy site until its current facility opened.[4] In turn the British School of Houston occupied the former Northwest Academy/Houston Christian site.[5]

In fall 1998 Houston Christian began operations. Metro National Corp. sold the land, for under $4,000,000, to a group that intended to use the land for the permanent Houston Christian location. The cost of building was, in 1998, thought to be approximately $20 million. Construction was to begin in 1999.[6] The school opened in the beginning of the school year in 2000. The following year multiple classrooms, a chapel, and the fine arts facilities were scheduled to open.[4] The ultimate cost was $11 million.[3]

Student enrollment increased from 155 in 1998 to 338 in 2001.[3]

Circa 2018, the school decided to create a fine arts endowment from a donation worth $1,000,000.[7]
