Why Attend NCS?

Choosing a school is one of the most important decisions your family will make. Since 1971, Northside Christian School has partnered with families to prepare students—academically, socially, and spiritually—for lives of leadership and purpose.

Here, 900 students from Preschool through 12th grade thrive in a rigorous, Christ-centered environment where excellence is expected in every arena: academics, athletics, fine arts, and character development. Our graduates leave with confidence, conviction, and the skills to succeed in college and beyond.

Northside is fully accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). In 2016, we were honored as a National Blue Ribbon School—placing us among the top 50 private schools in the nation.

But numbers alone don’t tell the story. With an average graduating class of 75 and a re-enrollment rate consistently above 95%, Northside offers both excellence and intimacy. Families choose us not just for strong academics but for a culture rooted in community and tradition. One of our favorite sayings is, “Once a Mustang, always a Mustang.”

Enrollment at Northside is competitive, and spaces fill quickly. The best way to experience the Mustang difference is to see it for yourself. We invite you to schedule a tour, meet our faculty, and discover what it means to be part of the Northside family
