Why Attend NCS?
Northside Christian School is situated on 28 acres in northwest St. Petersburg, Florida. Since 1971, our award-winning school has served students from age 3 through 12th grade. We are renowned for developing well-rounded students by focusing on academics, athletics, and the fine arts, all within a Christ-centered environment. Northside Christian School is fully accredited by both the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and the Association of Christian Schools International. In 2016, we were honored as a National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education, an award recognizing the top 50 private schools in the country.
Every school has its own unique culture, and at Northside Christian, we consider ourselves a family. With around 900 students and an average graduating class of 75, we take pride in our close-knit community, reflected in our impressive re-enrollment rate of 95% or higher. One of our favorite sayings is, "Once a Mustang, always a Mustang." While our relaxed atmosphere may come naturally from being just 2.5 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, don’t be mistaken—we love to win! We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to our Mustang family.
