Junior & High School

Students in Junior High begin to think abstractly and analytically around this age and, therefore, are ready to learn how to reason well. Students begin to see the big picture and interrelations between different subjects.

At NCCS the High School level harnesses students’ natural inclination toward creative communication and expression. Students learn how to speak and write with eloquence and grace. The focus now shifts to the expression of ideas in fluent, elegant, and persuasive forms. Students add formal rhetoric to their course of study, in addition to the core subjects of theology, literature, history, math, and grammar/composition. Their engagement with primary sources and great books also increases.
