Bethesda Christian School opened its doors in the fall of 1980 with the mission of providing a Christ-centered education that prepares students for their God-given purposes. Located just 20 minutes northeast of downtown Fort Worth, Bethesda is a respected school in NE Tarrant County with a reputation for the strength of its character training and academic programs. Bethesda's administrator was recognized in 2010 by the National Association of Elementary School Principals as a National Distinguished Principal--one of only six private school principals selected for this honor nationwide.
