  History of Christian Schools of Florida
Schools holding membership in the old National Union of Christian Schools have existed in Florida since the 1950’s.
It gradually became evident to the schools that a unique and distinctly Reformed organization was needed in Florida, both to provide spiritual guidance and leadership not found in secular organizations, and improved professional and academic standards and processes not found at the time in Christian organizations.
Christian Schools of Florida honors the legacy handed down to its member schools by the earliest known Christian school community in Florida, the Huguenot community established at Fort Caroline in 1562.

The Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools is a society of male religious approved by the Church, but not taking Holy orders, and having for its object the personal sanctification of its members and the Christian education of youth, especially of the children of artisans and the poor.
