About Us
Trailhead Christian School is an affordable, private, and Christian elementary school serving the community of Billings, Montana. Originally named Central Acres Christian School in 1957, this school has provided hundreds of students with an excellent education that goes beyond just academics. We realize any school can educate a child to learn how to read or to work through math equations. But we recognize our responsibility to model respect, love, and kindness inside and outside of the classroom.
TCS is a kindergarten through 8th-grade school owned and operated by the Montana Conference of Seventh-day Adventists and funded by parents, the Montana Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, the Billings Seventh-day Adventist Church, and other generous donations. It is accredited by the North American Division of Seventh-day Adventists Office of Education and the National Council for Private School Accreditation. Trailhead Christian School is one of 736 Adventist-sponsored Elementary Schools in North America.
