This is the first in a series exploring education at Nashua Christian Academy.

"Teach Me Knowledge and Good Judgment,

For I Believe in Your Commands" - Psalm 119:6

In the early years as Christian parents, you have assurance that the influences most affecting your child are aligned with your faith and values: the family and the church. But before you know it, a third major influence comes into your child's life: elementary school.  Since students spend in excess of 30 hours a week there, choosing a school based on its structure, culture, and underlying principles is not a simple choice.

At Nashua Christian Academy’s K-5 elementary school, your child’s horizon of knowledge will be expanded in a God-honoring way. Here we build solidly upon the firm foundation that Christian parents provide their child at home and at church.

As a master educator and someone with ten plus years of experience at NCA, our Elementary School Principal, Mrs. Jean Eastman has a solid perspective on what sets our elementary program apart:

"Our mission, Passion for God, Compassion for People drives everything we do here at NCA. We develop passion for God in our youngest students by learning to love Him, praise Him, and read, memorize, discuss and obey His Word. Each day is a new opportunity to practice living lives pleasing to the Lord. Children learn compassion by observing it in the lives of their teachers as they instruct from a godly perspective, as they model kindness and compassion and with their words and actions. The teachers take the time to stop and instruct in those "teachable moments" that happen throughout the day, and we actively seek to instill in our students a love for others.
