Neuse Christian Academy

NCA was founded to provide high academic standards in a totally Christian atmosphere. The purpose of Christian education is to develop an educational process that puts the Bible at the center and asks the student and teacher to evaluate all they see in the world through the eyes of God - because God is truth.

We believe that the education of children is the God-given responsibility of parents and that our school functions to assist the parents in meeting their obligation. The school seeks to cooperate closely with parents in every phase of the student’s development.

Realizing the differences in a child’s innate abilities, we encourage and expect each student to do his or her best. It is the desired goal of NCA that each student will learn not just “how to make a living” but, more importantly, “how to live.” Each student will be challenged to live a life that is pleasing to the Lord in all areas. To that end, we commit ourselves.

NCA offers:
•Academic Excellence
•Athletic Teams
•Fine Arts Program
•Computer & Science Labs
•Traditional School Calendar
•Staff Dedicated to Serving You
•Honor Classes
•Advanced Placement Classes (AP)

NCA Athletics Philosophy

What We Believe
Neuse Christian Academy offers a full middle school and high school athletic program. We believe that the principles and lessons learned in the classroom, at home, and through the local church, can be put into practice through athletics. As a microcosm of society, athletics allow the student to develop and use his or her God given ability to glorify God. Because the arena of competition is usually surrounded with pressure, the athlete is tested, and the true character revealed. Consequently, the opportunity for character growth readily presents itself through athletic competition. Therefore, athletics at NCA is considered an integral part of a student-athlete’s school curriculum, though it is a voluntary extracurricular activity. It is our hope that all of our students, 6th-12th grade, would desire to participate in at least one sport during the school year, but it is certainly not required.


Our Commitment to Excellence
Our philosophy can be summed up by the phrase “doing our best as we strive to be the best.” We believe as Christians that we are commanded by Scripture always to do OUR best. As believers, we are not to waste the talent God has given us by giving anything less than total commitment, through participation, and maximum effort. We also believe we should STRIVE to be THE best at what we do. Being the best at anything, whether it is a National Merit Scholar or a state champion in basketball, is a worth and admirable goal for any Christian. Becoming THE best may not always be the result of our athletic program, however doing OUR best for God’s glory must be.
