David Jhung, a Korean missionary who founded the said school last November 1999 as a free kindergarten school. With a burden and vision to respond to the great need of Christian families in the community, he decided to continue the program in June 2000 as formal educational institution for Nursery, Kinder and Prep levels registered to the Department of Trade and Industry. He aimed for a Christian school that geared to the attainment of the highest academic excellence for the development of personality in a totally Christian environment. Due to Parent’s demand, the school started operating grade 1 last June 2001, an additional level for 2002, and 2 more levels for 2003.

On March 2003, the institution bought a lot of 1000 sq.m in Bagtas, Tanza and started the construction of the new school building. The school board amended its articles of Incorporation/ By-laws, changing the name from Carissa Grace Mission School, Inc. to Good Tree International School, Inc. and transferred the newly named school from Carissa to Bagtas, Tanza Cavite. In the said date, Good Tree International School was blessed by another 1000 sq.m lot, and started the construction for Preschool building.
