history
Community Church started PreK classes in 1974. It was an early sign that this community of faith would touch the lives of thousands of children in Jackson Heights.
In 1985, a Summer School program started for Chinese students and quickly became known as a school that helped good students stay a step ahead during the summer.
And in 1997, Afterschool Achievement Club started to help parents and students complete homework successfully.
In 2002, Community Church decided to incorporate the school separately. The new agency still has the same desire -- to get students in Jackson Heights prepared early for college.
