Background

Greater Cincinnati Christian High School was established in 1971 at the Springdale Baptist Church. The same year, Tri-County Christian Elementary School opened for grades kindergarten through third, operated by Tri-County Assembly Church of God. In 1973, Tri-County added fourth through sixth grades. In 1975 Tri-County assumed control of Greater Cincinnati Christian, forming a kindergarten through twelfth grade educational system.[3]

In 1993, the schools separated financially and operationally from the Tri-County Assembly Church of God and became Cincinnati Christian Schools. The schools are now operated by a non-denominational board of directors.[3]
