School History
HISTORY
During the spring of 1995, Northshore Christian Church’s leadership saw a need for a Christian school in the South Everett area. After researching and praying for God’s direction, the church started an elementary school in the fall. Northshore Christian Academy opened with 37 students in kindergarten through third grade. At that time, NCA was located at the 80th Street temporary church location. In the fall of 1996, the school opened for a second year with almost 100 students in preschool through fourth grade. In 1998, the school began with 200 students in two leased warehouses. In 2000, the new campus opened one building where the church and 7 school classrooms resided. The school also expanded to eighth grade.
In 2003, after nine years in temporary buildings, the dream for one campus was realized when all classrooms moved into our current facilities. From 2005-2014, programs expanded in order to maximize learning and service to our families. These include the Early Learning Center, REAL Summer Program, NSAE (Northshore School of the Arts and Enrichment), and Middle School Pavilion. Other learning programs expanded at this time such as orchestra, band, art, advanced math, technology, science, robotics engineering, and the library.
Over 23 years, parents, students, faculty and church leaders have worked together to provide a school environment where thousands of students have thrived and excelled in academics, personal and spiritual development. Our goal and focus continues to be providing a school community where students are equipped to become strong leaders who excel in higher education, known for their Christian character and leaders in the community.
