History
Established in 1920.

Western Christian Schools, dates its beginning in 1920, but its roots go back even further. In the first years of the 20th century people were migrating from the east and mid-west. Members of the Brethren in Christ denomination were a part of this migration. With continuous growth of the church, a larger church building was needed in 1918. By 1920 another facility was built at the intersection of 3rd Ave. and Street in Upland. A plan for their own school was to serve both the need of a Christian grade school and for training young adults for Christian service. A Christian school was begun in this church, in the fall of 1920. The new school was called Beulah College and Bible School.
