History

NCCS was founded in 1973 by a group of parents wanting to establish a school with a strong academic program and a Christian culture and worldview. After purchasing land on a hilltop in Oregon City, volunteers constructed the first six-room building for 93 students and six teachers. ^[8] NCCS has since grown into a fully accredited institution with a full-service campus. ^[8]

The school is governed by a board of directors and overseen by an administrator. ^[9]
