Congrats to our New Middle Schoolers!

This was far from the graduation celebration we had planned for our 5th graders. Missing were the traditional 5th grade cruise and ceremony. But these budding 6th graders took it all in stride and showed up with smiles on their faces for a drive-through graduation on their campuses. With diplomas handed out through car windows, sunroofs, even truck beds, it was not the day we had planned but it was a day to remember forever! Congratulations to our newest sixth grade Ambassadors!

Meet the Winners of Our 2020 NCS Scholarships

Meet the Winners of Our 2020 NCS Scholarships

Over the years, generous alumni and families have established eight scholarships to benefit Norfolk Christian students and alumni while honoring the legacy, spirit or memory of a beloved teacher or family member. 

Various scholarship committees meet each spring to review applications from NCS students and graduates, and to choose recipients based on unique criteria established for each.  Scholarship awards vary in amount and are donated toward college tuition for graduates or as financial aid for NCS high schoolers. 

Scholarships for graduating Norfolk Christian seniors are typically announced at Commencement. However, due to the delay in our 2020 Graduation Ceremony, scholarships were awarded to 2020 seniors at the end of May.

Senior Surprise for a Special Class

Senior Surprise for a Special Class

On the Thursday before Easter, a group of NCS staff and volunteers gathered for a very important mission: to send a little encouragement to our senior class and let them know how much we miss having them on campus. With masks donned, these seven ladies set out in different directions to deliver “NCS Class of 2020” yard signs to each of our 78 soon-to-be graduates. Some were stealthy while others couldn’t pass up the chance to give an air hug and a prayer from a socially appropriate distance (ahem, Mrs Sandwell). All were delighted to spread some cheer to this amazing group of young men and women who are spending their final days at NCS much differently than we could have imagined.

A huge thanks to our mystery sign fairies:
