To prepare our students to serve Christ in this competitive, global world of the 21st century, we are strongly committed to academic excellence. Our academic program is comprehensive, college preparatory, and taught with a Christian world-view. Beginning in kindergarten, the academic program is designed to lay a solid intellectual and spiritual foundation for our students. NRCA students are challenged daily to excel as they are being prepared for the college or university which they choose to attend, and the career they decide to pursue.
