The King's Christian School is a private school located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey that serves students in grades Pre-K through 12. Not associated with any particular main-line Protestant denomination or church, King's is owned and operated by 'The Association of The King's Christian School,' a non-profit organization governed by a Board of Directors and made up of the parents and friends of the school.
Founded as the Christian Day School of Camden County, the school opened in 1946 at Immanuel Presbyterian Church in the West Collingswood section of Haddon Township, New Jersey.[1]
The King's Christian School is approved under the authority of the New Jersey Department of Education and is accredited by the Association of Christian Schools International and by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Secondary Schools.[2]
King's offers a fully integrated college preparatory curriculum with an evangelical Christian worldview and required Biblical education at all grade levels.
