School History

At Northside Christian School, we have been partnering with Columbus-area Christian parents in the training of students since 1971. That's right, over 50 years! For most of those 50 years, we have been located in Westerville, near the intersection of W Schrock Rd. and Cleveland Ave. We are a traditional Christian school, seeking to maintain Biblical standards in all aspects of the educational process. Northside Christian School was established in order to provide Christian children with an education of high academic quality in a thoroughly Christian atmosphere.

Northside Christian School is a ministry of Calvary Bible Church. Each member of the faculty is a born-again Christian, dedicated to serving the Lord through the ministry of teaching young people. Our faculty is well-qualified, both spiritually and academically.

In 2021, NCS marked 50 years of ministry. As we reflect on the past, we acknowledge that this ministry is of and for God. His glory is clearly displayed in His financial provision, scores of alumni who are serving Him, and the support of many families and churches we have felt along the way. More than 10% of our current students are children of alumni. Several alumni have returned to our faculty. We rejoice in all that Christ has accomplished in the lives of students, staff, and alumni over these decades.

The current student experience at Northside shares some key aspects with the experience of the past 50 years: excellence in Fine Arts and college-ready graduates, to name a few. But today's students enter our campus to find two permanent buildings with bright halls and inviting classrooms. Our focus is on discipleship in every interaction. We have been able to remain affordable compared to other local Christian schools. Our motto is that students Learn, Love, and Live Christ. And it is more than just a motto. The Biblical Worldview underlying all our curriculum choices ensures that students Learn Christ, even when they are learning mathematics. As students learn of Christ in the classroom and in chapel, our prayer is that they grow to Love Christ. Students who are learning Christ and loving Christ find ample opportunities to Live Christ through our extracurricular activities, in the local church, the home and the world. Students in grades 11-12 have the opportunity to mentor Pre-K through 8th graders, teaching Bible and chapel programs, while being mentored by staff members with years of experience teaching children in the local church.
