I could not be more thankful to the Lord for my time at Northside Christian Academy. I was not only able to learn how to become a better student and athlete, but I was also able to see tremendous testimonials for Christ in how I should live my life. Even now that I am a working professional, I can fondly look back at my educational, athletic and life experience at Northside as a time that really helped me shape my work ethic and character in what has led me to future success in college, my career and in how I live my live striving to glorify Christ.

NCA has really helped me grow as a person. When I graduated and went on to college, my eyes were opened to the new environment, people, and traditions that were not normal to me. Because of NCA I was firmly grounded in the foundation I grew up in, and I am proud to say I am having an amazing time in college. The classes prepared me very well (especially history). And the writing was not as difficult of a challenge as I was expecting it to be. There were several times where I would wonder how life would be if I hadn’t gone to NCA, but because I did, my life changed for the better. I am able to defend my faith without having the fear of lacking information. I am also able to associate with people of different cultures because of the diversity NCA provided. Every one of my college friends is from a different country so it is a lot of fun learning about them, but this all rooted from the xenophilic background of Northside Christian Academy.

NCA means so much to me. As someone that’s attended Northside since kindergarten, I was truly able to reap the benefits of a Christian education throughout my entire schooling. I have been able to nurture my faith as well as my education simultaneously. Northside has always provided me with an environment where I’ve felt comfortable enough to ask for help because I know someone is always willing to help. NCA has challenged me and has allowed me to develop an understanding of balance, respect, and faithfulness!
