Halton Hills Christian School
School in Georgetown (Halton)

In January 1957, a group of dedicated parents who felt the need for Christian education, came together to begin plans for their vision of a Christian school. The school's name will officially change (by September 2009) to Halton Hills Christian School, a name more reflective of the community where the school is located and the area that it services.Halton hills Christian School continues to serve Christian families from a large geographical area. In the spring of 2009, a new name and logo were presented and approved by the school membership. A pre-school for four year olds was started in 1997.In the fall of 2008, a process of re-branding was initiated by the board and development committee, with the goal in mind to make sure that the school's "brand" was relevant and "current" with respect to our vision for excellence and growth. Since that time, the school building has been enlarged four times in order to accommodate the increasing number of students coming from Christian homes in the community. Psalm 111: 10, was chosen for the cornerstone: "For reverence of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom." Three staff members welcomed ninety-nine students to three classrooms that September morning. In October 1960 the school became incorporated as Georgetown District Christian School and gradually enough money was accumulated to buy to property on which the school now stands.The school became a reality in 1965, when it was dedicated for service. These families represent a number of Christian denominations whose desire is that Jesus Christ be acknowledged as Lord of all Life.
