Founded upon traditional Christian beliefs, Christian Heritage School's mission is to provide excellence in college preparatory education, working together with the home, to develop within each student the ability to reason biblically, while equipping them to fulfill their God-given calling in life. Christian Heritage School has a curriculum and philosophy of learning grounded in the elements of a Christian Classical Education.

The Christian Classical curriculum, divided into three stages of learning, best complements the three states of cognitive development. By incorporating the stages of grammar, logic, and rhetoric within the curriculum, our students receive and achieve more than a base of knowledge; they are equipped with skills that will make them lifetime learners. The classical method allows every student to excel in core subjects and develop critical thinking skills thorugh Socratic dialogue that promotes intellectual and academic growth and success. In addition, skills in rhetoric are built from the elementary years, equipping our graduates to communicate effectively.

A Christian educational philosophy allows our teachers to freely evaluate and adapt curriculum materials so they most accurately express God's truth. In doing so, they seek to inspire Biblical scholarship and independent thinking, with the ultimate goal of interpreting the subject matter in the light of a Biblical worldview. We utilize a notebook for every subject, developing personal responsibility for study, critical thinking, penmanship, organization, and a correct record of each student's progress and productivity.

CHS is blessed with a diversified faculty whose members are expected to exemplify Christ in their daily lives. They have been carefully selected for their genuine Christian commitment to teach and their love and ability to work with students.

Crisman Preparatory is a private, independent school for students with learning differences including, but not limited to, ADD, ADHD, dyslexia and autism.

Longview Christian School has been educating students since 1982. A ministry of the Longview Christian Fellowship Church, classes for students in K-4 – 12 have been offered on the campus at 2101 West Marshall.

Serving over 160 students, LCS enjoys the strongest reputation academically of any Christian school in Longview and Gregg County. Student scores on the Stanford Achievement Test routinely exceed the national norm by an average of two grade levels.

The mission statement of Longview Christian School reflects her commitment to building strong Christian families. It says, "Longview Christian School exists to assist parents in the training of their children by creating a caring, Christian educational system that will develop leaders with both spiritual and academic excellence."

The Oak Forest Montessori School was established in 1981. Its purpose is to enable the child to cultivate his natural desire to learn. This goal is approached in two ways: 1) By allowing each child to experience the excitement of learning through choices rather than being forced; 2) By helping the child to perfect all of his natural tools for learning, so that his ability will be at a maximum in future learning situations.

The school is a unique cycle of learning designed to take advantage of the child's sensitive years between the ages of 18 months and 6th grade, when he can absorb information from a rich environment. The use of individual materials permits a varied pace. This accommodates many levels of ability in the classroom. Children mature at very different rates and their periods of readiness for academic subjects vary a great deal. We believe that learning experiences should occur naturally and joyfully at the proper moments for each individual child.

The curriculum includes practical life, sensorial, language and phonics, literature, math, history, political and physical geography, zoology, botany, geometry, science, music, Spanish, motor skills, art, and work with computers in upper elementary.

At St. Mary's Catholic School, special emphasis is placed on the development and growth of the individual child: academically, morally, socially and spiritually. St. Mary's Catholic School instills a love for learning in a warm, caring environment, making students life-long learners.

Mission statement: St. Mary's school strives to develop faith-filled, responsible citizens for our global community by providing a quality Catholic education which emphasizes academic success, strong discipline and moral training, in a caring Christian environment.

Trinity School of Texas prepares the whole person for lifelong success by maximizing academic excellence in a Christian environment.

Those include a 1st place finish by the school newspaper, the Titan Torch, and a 3rd place finish in Persuasive Speaking. Our students also earned many first through third place awards in local and state fine arts competition. In addition, a Trinity student garnered 1st place in the Kilgore College Arts Symposium in 2007. Trinity students serve on the Texas Bank and Trust Student Board of Directors and in Leadership Tomorrow.
