Admissions Policy
New Covenant Christian School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, employment practices, athletic or other school-administered programs.
All parents must:
- Be sincerely committed to securing for their children a Christ-centered classical education which is taught from a distinctively Biblical worldview.
- Carefully examine the Statement of Purpose, Statement of Faith, and Educational Philosophy, and sign and affirm in conduct the Parental Covenant as a declaration of wholehearted agreement with and commitment to New Covenant Christian School.
- Be willing and able to view the school as an extension of their homes. If the school cannot be an extension of the home, children will not be enrolled here, for to do so would put the child(ren) in the position of having to “choose between two masters”. This only brings confusion and resentment into children’s lives. (In the case of divorced/single-parent families, attempts will be made, whenever possible, to involve BOTH parents in the enrollment procedures and educational process.)
All Students must:
- Whenever possible visit and tour the building, observe classes in progress, and meet with prospective teacher(s) and fellow students prior to enrollment.
- Read and discuss with parents the NCCS Parent/Student Handbook.
- Meet with an administrator for a personal interview, demonstrating willingness to be here and sincerity in the signing of the Student Covenant (grades 5 – 12).
Enrollment Time Schedule:
While desiring to serve the community at large, and out of consideration for available space and resources, all completed forms and registration fees will be accepted starting in March. All prior tuition and fees must be up-to-date (or an acceptable repayment plan in effect) before re-admission will be considered. Enrollment on a first-come, first-served basis, as space and time permit. Preference will be given to current NCCS families who are re-registering. After the start of the school year enrollment will be considered on a case-by-case basis, as space and time permit.
Enrollment Limits:
In an effort to provide a quality education, and because of space limitations, maximum enrollments for each class have been established as follows:
Kindergarten: 18 students (Child should turn 5 by September 1)
Grade 1: 18 students (Child should turn 6 by September 1)
Note: Children who do not meet the age requirement will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Grade 2-3: 20 students
Grades 4-8: 24 students
Grades 9-12: 100 students total
Placement:
New Covenant Christian School is committed to helping students succeed academically. Because of the rigorous nature of our program, we reserve the right to place new students at the grade level we assess to be most appropriate for the individual student. Academic testing may be required to determine proper placement. It will be required for students entering grades 3-11 to attend Classical Prep School prior to admission in the fall. Classical Prep School occurs two weeks prior to the start of regular classes. Further information will be available in the school office. If students are enrolled after Classical Prep School or are unable to attend, arrangements will be made on an individual basis.
Late Enrollments:
Enrollment at NCCS after the start of school will be contingent on the following (in addition to those guidelines noted in the Parent/Student Handbook):
Clear pastoral relationship
- a. Demonstrated ability at grade level (past grades from former school and/or SAT scores)
- b. Parental commitment to work with and supply needed help to integrate their children into our system
- i. Successful completion of trial (probationary) period
