Soon after the Armenian people of Musa Dagh were settled in Anjar in 1939, the Armenian Evangelical School (elementary section) started to operate in the newly constructed church building. The classes were carved out with blankets. The same teacher was teaching in two different classes at the same time.

These were the hard days for everybody. Very cold and muddy winter, and very hot dry and dusty summer. People with bare feet and empty stomach. It was the time that the 2nd World War was at its peak, and the Anjarians were refugees. In 1947 the school gave its graduates from the elementary section. Among them was Mr. Panos Panoyan ,who worked in the school as a superintendent till his retirement in 1976.

In 1947, Sister Hedwig Aienshanslin, member of the Swiss-German Hillfsbund missionary, arrived Anjar and started the missionary work in a single room which was at the same time her bedroom, living room, clinic and preaching hall.

In 1948 the school authorities who had become desperate, applied to her to assume the responsibility of running the school. Soon after the elementary school became junior high school.

In 1954 the school was provided with new classes.

In 1955 the boarding department was established with 15 students from Kessab, Beirut and Zahleh; 10 boys and 5 girls. There was no single building for the boarding students. Instead they were living in different houses in Anjar. And it was the duty of Mr. Panos Panoyan to supervise the boarding students. Soon after, two other sisters Mary Rock and Anna Nitsche joined sister Hedwig.

In 1956 the school gave its first harvest:

During the following years, the school and the boarding departments prospered exponentially. The number of the students reached 750. 400 of this number were the boarding students. Because of the civil war that erupted in Lebanon in 1975 there was a dramatic shrink in the number of boarding students.

In 1972 Sisters Hedwig, Mary and Anna retired. They were given a flat in Ain-Saade, in Lebanon. They lived there till 1976. During the heavy fightings Sister Mary passed away. She is buried in Anjar.

After the retirement of Sister Hedwig, Rev. Hagop Jambazian assumed the management of the school. In 1975 Rev. Manase Shnorokian became the principal of the school for one year. In 1976 Rev Hovhannes Sarmazian became the principal of the school until 1990. After the retirement of the Rev. Sarmazian, Rev. Nerses Balabanian became the school's principal and the pastor of the church. In 1998, Pastor Raffi Messerlian took over the position from Rev. Balabanian.
