Houston Christian High School
- Houston Christian High School
Houston Christian High School is a private college preparatory school in Houston, Texas, United States.
HCHS, which serves grades 9 through 12, is located inside Beltway 8 and outside Interstate 610 in western Houston.
History
In 1998, Northwest Academy (K-12) split into First Baptist Academy and Houston Christian High School. First Baptist Academy moved to a location next to Houston First Baptist Church and Houston Christian remained at the Northwest Academy site until a new school was built off of Beltway 8 (stretches of Beltway 8 are designated as the Sam Houston Tollway).
In 2005, an 11th grade English teacher was fired from the school after engaging in sexual intercourse with one of the senior football players at a house party in which alcohol was being consumed. While the teacher was released, the student was not held responsible by the school because his parents threatened to alert the local media, which would have ruined the school's reputation.
