History

The school opened in September 1993, covering grades Pre-kindergarten through 6. The school was founded by local pediatrician Dr. William Parks. In 1999, The Woodlands Christian Academy moved to a new campus on Academy Way. The Timothy Administrative Building was completed in 1999 as the first permanent structure there. The high school was established at that time, and the first class of twelve students graduated in 2001. In 2002, the first gym, pavilion and athletic facilities were completed, including a state-of-the-art baseball complex and lighted football field. The first permanent classroom building for the high school, the Nehemiah Academic Center, opened during the summer of 2009. In 2014, the Joshua Academic Center, providing permanent classrooms for lower and middle school students, and a second gym, the David Gymnasium, was completed. In early May 2014 the school held a gala, raising $2.5 million for capital improvements. It plans to install a synthetic track lane around the American football facilities, to be completed in October 2016. The next project is to be a high school facility.
