We May Be a Fit for You

If Your Student Is a Unique Individual

 

  • Students have diverse learning needs—some need quiet, others need movement, some need support, others need challenges.
  • Most schools use a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn’t reflect these differences.
  • At Northern, education is personalized to meet each student’s unique needs.


Check out our "Unique Learning Model" page to discover more.

If You Want a School That Values Family Time

 

  • Many schools act as if school should be the center of your family’s life, piling on homework, events, and fundraisers.
  • At our school, we believe school should support—not compete with—your family life.
  • We aim to partner with you in ways that enrich and respect your home life.
     

Check out our Current Year page for our school calendar.

If You Desire the Benefits of a Personal Education

 

  • Northern provides a personalized education, emphasizing individual success, small class sizes, and tailored learning from a Christian worldview.
  • Instruction focuses on real-world skills, self-knowledge, and preparing students for the future God has planned for them.
  • A relaxed, relationship-focused environment encourages growth, mentoring, and students doing their best work.
