All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work. - 2 Timothy 3:16-17
OUR CURRICULUM
Integrated approach that teaches kids to thinkOur curriculum teaches children to think, not just memorize, and engages children in the world in which they live. With highly interactive and experiential activities, coupled with traditional learning techniques, our teaching is based on a hybrid of classical and current educational modes. Chances are NHCS students not only know more, but they've been on more field trips, and they have higher thinking and reasoning skills than others.
|
Consistently producing higher test scoresOur kids thrive academically. This is reflected in the high test scores received on standardized test and entrance exams. Many students have been accepted to local high schools and received scholarships as well.
|
Biblical truth and principles woven throughoutNot just a class or after school program, God is the source of each subject and His character is revealed in every subject. For example, we teach history chronologically so students can see what God has been doing since creation. We read whole novels instead of excerpts and anthologies and teach students to evaluate the themes and characters biblically. We teach the consequences of ideas and choices as well as how to reason from Scripture

Experiential, immersion field tripsWhy just sit in a classroom when there is a great big world to experience and learn from? At New Harvest Christian School we take advantage of our location in California. From science camps and nature trips to Catalina Island, to the tidal pools in Carpenteria, we experience God's creations up close and personal. A trip to The Getty Villa culminates a study of Ancient Greece and Rome. A trip to the Huntington Library enhances our study of American art. We end our study of Middle Ages by watching a live tournament at Medieval Times. Our 8th graders end their year's study of Government and Economics with a Christian History Tour of America's east coast.
