Christian Heritage School (Connecticut)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christian Heritage School is a kindergarten through 12th grade private preparatory school that was founded in Trumbull, Connecticut in 1977. A nondenominational Christian school, it enrolls about 550 students. The elementary and high schools share a building.

The school's mission is "(1) to assist parents in fulfilling their God-given responsibility to teach their children that 'In Christ are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge'(Col. 2:3) and (2) to provide its students with an education of spiritual and academic excellence with which to serve God."

All students attending Christian Heritage are required to pass the Bible class corresponding to their grade level, and attendance of weekly chapel services is also mandatory.

The school is overseen by one headmaster, Barry Giller. Both the upper school and lower school have separate principals, Karl Nielsen and June Vangor respectively. Mr. Nielsen however will be stepping down and going to Papua New Guinea to teach.
