“Popcorn is prepared in the 
same pot, in the same heat, in the same oil, and yet, the kernels do not pop at the same time. Don’t compare your child to other children. Their turn to pop is coming.”
Educational Objectives
Our goal at NHCS is to offer a well-rounded education while sharing in Christian fellowship. Our first grade curriculum includes Math, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Shurley English, Handwriting and Bible. As well as weekly classes in Art, P.E., Music and Computers. Our smaller class size is a tribute to more individualized instruction and relationships with fellow classmates.
