Christ the King School serves God by educating students within the Catholic tradition of faith, academic excellence, love, and service.
Christ the King is a Pre-Kindergarten (4 y.o.) through Grade 8 Catholic school that lives this mission daily by valuing each child’s unique gifts, working to help individuals reach their potential spiritually, academically, socially, emotionally, and physically. We accomplish this in a community where students feel a sense of belonging, purpose, and personal safety. The faculty and staff regard their roles as learning leaders who model the motivation, curiosity, respect, and compassion expected of students. Our mission as a Catholic elementary school is to educate young people in a faith-filled environment that builds discipleship with catechesis, prayer, and worship. Christ the King embodies its vision to establish a strong foundation for academic excellence through attentive instruction and carefully planned application of skills and knowledge, supported by the integration of technology and community resources.
CKS offers a variety of opportunities beyond the foundational curriculum to enrich students’ minds, spirits, and bodies. Every grade participates in art, music, Spanish, technology, library, and physical education classes. These classes introduce and reinforce vital skills for students such as teamwork, responsibility, creativity, cooperation, and global awareness. Our graduates have become leaders in the larger community. The school continues to prepare and nurture students to be well-rounded individuals, equipped with honorable habits of heart and mind, who light the way for their generation.
Located at 3105 Belmont Blvd. in Nashville, Christ the King School is home to approximately 250 students and 30 faculty & staff with a history of academic excellence and a strong Catholic identity. Christ the King School is one of the essential ministries of Christ the King Parish, part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nashville.
