The 2008/2009 school has been a complete mess. Too many new teachers in the elementary grades have made for much confusion. The Administration tries to catch and correct problems, but is either too late or fails at correction. Church leadership has faltered since the departure of Pastor Locke. This

As a former student of New Testament, enrolled there K-12, I have no regrets at all about my education there. Although they may not have all of the extra curricular activities as offered at other schools, what the teachers and staff offer through their time and commitment to every student makes up for

They would stop class any day if a student needed someone to pray with or just cry to about whatever their struggling with. For me it was going to school with your family, where you were accepted for who you were and you were truly loved, not just another student number on an overwhelming list. I would wholeheartedly recommend this school and God has blessed me through my education there. Read less

I am a current parent of a high schooler. He has been attending NTCS for 11 years! I often ask him if he regrets us sending him to NTCS. His reply is always no. He would not want to be anywhere else. I ask him why and he states that he loves the environment: the staff and teachers are loving and

He is well on his way to developing a competitive high school portfolio with his classes, sports and social activities. He's made many wonderful friends who he feels free to talk about God with. He has a close bond to many of the faculty. I hear him tell others 'how many kids can say they like hanging out with their teacher or youth pastor at their homes'! We love NTCS! Read less

I go to NTCS and It's alright, I would have left a long long time ago, but I would miss my buds too much. Class sizes have dropped this year from20 to 13 and there aren't alot of New Students and the Teachers are sort of mean.

As a former student, I look back at New Testament Christian School as the best decision my parents ever made for me. The attention that I received with regard to academics and growth in Christ was amazing to say the least. These teachers are nothing if they don't love their students. The abundance
... Read more of after school programs and classes outside of your core curriculum is not there and that is a downside, but this school more than makes up for it by caring for its students. The uniforms are a good idea as it normalizes the social atmosphere and forces kids to exercise their personality and not their taste in fashion in order to make friends. As a side note, I graduated NTCS, went on to Northeastern University, graduated as an engineer, now gainfully employed, and active in my church community. I wholeheartedly attribute all of this to God and NTCS. Read less

Staff are there For the Love of Christ, and truly believe they are delivering a quality education.. Buyer Beware. Not accredited, most teachers do not have a college degree. Overcrowding in many grades. Test scores are low. Reconsider with a strong church program and homeschool or public school.
