Frequently Asked Questions
What is the class size?
Each class has a maximum of twenty students.
Do I have to be of a particular denomination to attend Northridge Christian School?
No. Our students come from a wide variety of local churches and from families who do not regularly attend
church. We believe in teaching time tested truths from the Bible while children are forming their value systems,
giving them the tools needed to make wise decisions as they grow up.
Do academics suffer because of Bible lessons?
No, academics and Bible lessons complement each other. Middle schools and junior highs across the area
welcome our graduates because of their strong academics and moral character.
I've never considered a private school before. Do you have to be wealthy to attend?
No. Our tuition is very affordable when compared with private schools in our area.
Do you have a dress code?
Yes. We have a school uniform with many options. In addition to being economical for parents it helps reduces distractions and unnecessary competition in school.
Do you take kids with special needs?
Yes. Each child is considered on a case by case basis. Children who have classified special needs can often receive
services while attending North.
Will my child take the school bus to and from school?
Students who live within 15 miles of our school get free school bus transportation from the public school district where they live. For example, if you live in Greece, your child will get picked up and brought home by a Greece Central school bus. No busing is provided for pre-k students.
Is there any chance your school will close, like so many other schools have?
No. Our school often has a waiting list, and is a ministry of a thriving church with many young families from across the area.
Are your teachers certified?
Yes.
How much turnover is there among the teachers and administrators?
Very little. Most of the teachers and administrators have been working together for ten years. This is three times
the national average and is a big part of our success, as we continuously find ways to improve our methods.
What are school hours?
8:15 until 2:45.
I work full time, so is wrap-around care available?
Yes. Early care starts at 7:00 and after care ends at 6:00.
In today's age, do you have security measures in place to protect my child?
Yes. We have a secure building and a tightly controlled process for child pick-up and for school dismissal. Additionally, all employees and volunteers undergo a background investigation.
I've seen a few schools that look tired and are surrounded by other buildings and too much concrete. What are
your grounds like?
We are located on a beautiful 7 acre campus with a lot of grass and mature trees. We have a fully equipped playground and ample room to play and to learn.
What kind of "special" classes do you have?
Art, computer lab, gym, library, and music.
What kind of music instruction do you offer?
We offer piano, violin, viola, guitar, flute, and voice.
Do you take field trips?
Yes. Each class takes several field trips throughout the year.
Do you have special performance events?
Yes. There are at least two school-wide events each year. These events provide a platform for students to use
their gifts and talents.
May I contact other parents as references?
