Academics
New Covenant Christian School provides a Christian Education in a Liberal Arts (PDF download) tradition, and with a Classical framework.
We value scholarship. Our emphasis on discipleship and the construction of a biblical worldview permeates all that we do. Our courses are structured to have high expectations of knowledge, thinking and the technical skills of presentation and expression.
Our academic results are consistently well above the State and National averages.
Senior Thesis is the capstone project at NCCS. Seniors select a topic of high interest and are committed to in-depth research as they spend the year researching and writing a persuasive paper. Emphasis is placed on the process as well as the product. Each senior delivers a ten-minute formal oral presentation before a group of staff, mentors, parents, and peers, after which they defend their thesis. Students leave us well prepared to excel at the college of their choice.
Our emphasis is on mastery learning (PDF download). This focuses on students demonstrating a solid understanding of a topic before they are able to move onto the next unit.
