Read what parents are saying about Northwest Christian SchoolGreat school. Both of my kids received a fantastic education in a loving God-centered environment.
Posted by a parent on 8/27/2019Excellent! Wouldn’t consider any other school for my children.
Posted by a parent on 8/6/2018This is a terrific school. Strong godly character is the focus above all. My kids have been attending for several years and have never been a part of a discipline problem, on the either end, because of the atmosphere of the school mostly. I had asked the principal when first enrolling how discipline problems are handling and his answer was that they would be praying together in his office, which is just incredible. My children's classes have never been larger than 11 students at a time. This school is the Christian choice in Sussex county.
Posted by a parent on 8/31/2017NCS is a great school that my family has attended for over 10 years! The principal, teachers, and staff are Godly people who not only provide an excellent Christian education but also truly nurture and care for the students. They provide sound academic courses in addition to many extracurricular activities in sports, choir, band, science, and math.
Posted by a parent on 4/21/2015We have been very happy at Northwest Christian School. We chose the school after I visited many preschools and I was very happy to see the students in Mrs. Kedash' classroom. The students were engaged, attentive and happy. My daughter has now been at the school for three years and we continue to be impressed with the challenging academics and more importantly the spiritual guidance and moral character they encourage at the school. The school has a strong Christian foundation and great leadership starting with the Principal, Mr. Cottrell. We are looking forward to another great year.

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageFirst of all their enrollment is so low (many kids drop out after joining for one year). So kids make friends for a year & then there is a completely different class next year with 90% new students. Second, most of the kids in the school from 2nd grade to 8th grade are students of staff members (who work as teachers in the school), and their class average is 5-6 kids in each grade (so do the math – most of those are kids of faculty). The school is run completely by the vice principal because the principal is a veteran who owns the school & at this time is not involved with anything. There are no extra-curricular activities apart from a track team which literally uses the side walk at the front of the building to train kids. The vice principal claimed when we joined the school that we teach two other languages, Spanish & Mandarin to all kids. Not even once in two years my son learnt both languages at the same time. It was either spanish or mandarin & sometimes none because if their mandarin or spanish teacher goes on leave, then they have no back-ups. They will teach Spanish, then randomly start Mandarin & keep on switching based on teacher’s availabilities. Here is when it all fell apart for us - We went on a one week trip and I informed the teachers in advance that we were going on vacation & when my son went back to school, they took 3 exams on the first day he was back in school. They are so incourateous that not only did they try to teach one week worth of material to my son in one day, but then also took 3 exams the same day. This is fundamentally wrong & truly messed up. Talk about giving your child mental stress in school. When I reached out to the teachers & Vice principal, they kept on saying – “oh look at his scores, he did well”. My whole feedback was that you should have sent the study guides home so I could prepare my son for the tests. When I talked directly to the vice principal, she cut me off while I was explaining the situation, was completely defensive & absolutely rude on the call and SHE HUNG UP ON ME. The vice principal had no interest in listening to me, or taking any feedback. Don’t waste your money & don’t sacrifice your child’s mental state by sending them to this school. FYI - Most other reviews on websites are given by staff members whose kids go to this school. Teachers are not good either.Parent Review11mo ago - Rock Brook School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school does not even hire teachers that are special ed certified. Their postings on ideed indicate that you may be "interested" in pursuing a certificate in special ed to apply. Really? Work hands-on with students without being certified. This is why this school is garbage and does not actually help any child make progress and succeed. How awful. They charge the sending district a fortune and a half and won't even hire certified teachers so that they could pay them less. DisGusTing!!!Parent Review8mo ago - St Anthony School
