Transportation to NCS is provided either by parents or by local school districts to families who meet mileage requirements.
Our Preschool Program
Our Preschool program focuses on the expansion of language, social awareness, gross and fine motor skills, and readiness for academic subjects. Through exciting daily activities and special field trips, preschool children can look forward to a meaningful educational experience where God’s interest in their lives is acknowledged and honored. The physical environment, experienced early childhood educators, and low student/teacher ratio all combine to provide a safe and successful learning experience for every young child.

Our Kindergarten
Each year NCS offers the option of a half-day or full-day Kindergarten program. Daily lessons are theme oriented and incorporate: listening, composition, reading, handwriting, math, art, music, and motor development. Many early science and social studies concepts are introduced as well. Students visit the computer lab and library once a week and enjoy physical education twice a week.
Each aspect of Kindergarten lays the foundation for a smooth transition into the NCS Elementary Program.
