Welcome to Christ the King School! We are both honored and pleased that you are considering our school for your child’s education. At Christ the King School we strive to build strong moral character in an academically challenging, faith-filled community. All of our teachers are chosen for their competency and dedication to educating the whole child in a beautiful Catholic community.
Nestled in the heart of Chevy Chase, Christ the King School has a welcoming neighborhood feel, while benefiting from extensive renovations, and twenty-first century updating in the past decade. Christ the King remains a traditional Catholic School with a strong commitment to total faith formation, academic excellence, and character development. Private and group tours are available upon request.
Sincerely,
Lindsey Ball
Admissions Director
