We left public schools in 2020 and enrolled at Northland Christian when my kids entered 3rd and 4th grade. I cannot express how WORTH IT it is! Without getting too political/controversial, there aren't the "trends"/confusion like there is going around at the public schools. NCS teaches around God's word and we couldn't be more thankful to attend here!

I recommend Northland Christian School for all families seeking quality education in an environment that fosters community and love for Christ. NCS has a history of being a school that lives out the mission it proclaims. The faculty is dedicated and experienced. The administration and board are committed to providing what our children and youth need most in this generation.
