Our Story
In 1964 Seminole Presbyterian Church established Seminole Presbyterian School, intending to reach the Tampa community with the message of Christ through education. In 2002, the school grew enough to stand independently from its parent church, becoming the Cambridge School, and finally Cambridge Christian School in 2007.
“Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it.”
– Proverbs 22:6
