Judah Christian School

Judah Christian School is a private, nondenominational Christian school in Champaign, Illinois, United States, located just south of the North Prospect business district. With a student body of just over 500, Judah Christian enrolls prekindergarten through 12th-grade students. As of the 2013–14 school year, the school offers three Advanced Placement courses.

History
In the fall of 1983, Judah Christian private school began for grades 7th through 10th. The plan was to include one more grade each year until JCS would become a private school program for grades seven through twelve. To help continue the growth of this new ministry, Urbana Assembly of Christ discontinued its 7th- and 8th-grade program. The school spent two years in the Webber Street Church facility, in Urbana. The school then moved to its location on Prospect Avenue. Plans for expansion began when JCS bought 54 acres of land. Judah has been nationally acknowledged for excellent academics.

Because of the request of several parents, the growth of Judah continued when in the spring of 1986 elementary grades became a part of the school.

During the autumn season of 1991 the Judah Christian School Society (JCSS) decided to add a preschool into Judah – making JCS a private Christian school schooling children from preschool through high school.

In 1999 the school expanded the building which included a gymnasium, secondary classrooms (for math, science, etc.) and offices.

Sports
The school offers several sports such as football, basketball, and baseball. It has been announced that new athletic fields will be open for the 2014–2015 school year.
