Pleasant View Christian School was founded in 1978, and held its first classes at Good Springs Free Will Baptist Church in Pleasant View, Tennessee. In 1982, Pleasant View Christian moved to its new location on Hicks Edgen Road. In 1985, the high school wing of the building was added. The original mascot was the Patriots, but it was changed to the Warriors in the mid-1980s.

In early November 2005, the yearbook staff were separated, and the newspaper became an independent class. With 2006, a switch from the classic "Voice of the Warrior" design to a new design based on the London "Guardian" newspaper came about. The newspaper's new name is "thewarrior", The Warrior
