It was established in the village of Choueifat, Lebanon in 1886 by Tanios Saad and Louisa Procter, an Irish woman.

In the 1890s Tanios Saad visited England to examine the British educational system.

In 1983 the school had to relocate due to the Lebanese Civil War (but resumed its original location in 1991).
