The school was founded in 1977 by parents who
felt the need for a local school providing a quality education in
English and with a Christian orientation primarily for missionary
children. The school began with the ACE program of individualized study
but was later changed to a system of traditional classroom education.
Until 1982, classrooms at kilometer 4 were rented from Bethesda Mission.
In January of 1983, the school moved to its present location (6.5
kilometers southwest of the center of Santa Cruz) which the school owns.
The school has grown from 34 students in 1977
to a present enrollment of more than 200. Over the years, more than 35
evangelical missions have been involved in the school by enrolling their
children or by supplying Board members and staff.
