Our Vision and Values
At NorthCreek Academy and Preschool, we believe that each child is a unique creation of God, endowed with creative potential and deserving of a well-rounded education. Our mission is to deliver a distinctly different Christian education, emphasizing mastery of the basics through chants, poems, songs, and other valuable memory tools. We strive to shape the hearts and minds of our students, equipping them for a lifetime of faith, wisdom, and service.
Preschool
Our Preschool program offers a Christian environment where children can grow and develop through age-appropriate activities. Our teaching methods balance child-initiated play and teacher-directed learning activities, encouraging independent thinking, experimentation, and problem-solving.
Elementary and Junior High
Our Elementary and Junior High programs continue to build upon the foundation established in the Preschool years. Our students benefit from small class sizes under faculty members who teach from areas of passion and strength. We emphasize mastery of the basics through chants, poems, songs, and other memory tools, ensuring a well-rounded education.
Classical Christian Education
We adhere to a classical approach to education, structured into three stages: Grammar, Dialectic, and Rhetoric. Each stage builds upon the previous one, guiding students in the development of critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication.
Accreditation and Transparency
We take pride in our accreditation by the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). Additionally, we have been awarded the GuideStar 2018 Gold Seal of Transparency, demonstrating our commitment to accountability and transparency.
