High School

 
"Investing In Eternity One Student At A Time," requires a curriculum and instructional programs that integrate God's truth into every aspect of the school experience.  North County Christian High School provides an academic environment where a student's personal relationship with Jesus Christ is encouraged and supported by an experienced, qualified, Christian faculty.  Students experience a sense of community that is positive and exciting.  Working in cooperation with the home and church, our goal is to help students develop spiritual and intellectual maturity and prepare them to become servant leaders in their communities.

The high school curriculum is primarily college preparatory in nature.  Students will take classes in the core subject areas of English/Literature, History/Geography, Mathematics, and Science. Elective classes in Spanish, Computer, Yearbook, Band, Ensemble, and Drama allow students to accentuate their educational program with learning tailored to their interest.  Our dual enrollment program with St. Louis Community College at Florissant Valley, provide juniors and seniors an opportunity to earn college credit while completing their high school graduation requirements.

 

Daily Bible classes provide occasion for students to explore God's Word as they seek the answers to the questions of Life, Faith, and Truth.  Christian principles involved in dating, marriage, and the family are addressed offering practical guidelines for establishing and maintaining a Christian marriage.

 

NCCS has a variety of extracurricular athletics and student government activities that provide a well-rounded high school experience.

 

 

North County Christian School is Accredited!

 

On February 23, 2010, North County Christian School received official notification that the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) Accreditation Commission had reviewed the visiting team’s report and granted full accreditation for the secondary grades 7-12.  This is a great accomplishment and is a culmination of three years of hard work by the Secondary Faculty, Administration Team and the School Board.

 

Accreditation by a well-recognized agency is a seal of quality on an educational organization.  The Association of Christian Schools International promotes the value and worthiness of accreditation and encourages each school to continuously pursue excellence.  Believing that this pursuit matches the biblical directive of approving “things that are excellent” (Philippians 1:10, KJV).  The “accredited” seal denotes a school that has met institutional standards of quality and that verifies a commitment to strategic improvement and ongoing accountability.  The process of accreditation involves three significant elements:

 

1. Intensive, institution-wide self-appraisal, analysis, and improvement planning

2. External consultation, review, validation, and insights from a visiting peer group

3. Ongoing accountability for improvement through annual reporting and renewal

 

ACSI’s internationally recognized accreditation program is designed to assist a school in obtaining widely

recognized accredited status.  ACSI accredited educational institutions receive the following benefits:

· Accredited membership status in ACSI and a listing as such in the directory

· Approval by the U.S. Department of Education for the Student Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), the Student Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), I-20 and I-17 forms

· Various U.S. state and national recognitions for credits/athletics

· Endorsement to administer College Board/ACT exams on the school site

North County Christian School will now begin the process for completing the necessary requirements for accreditation of its K-6 educational program.
