North Cobb Christian School

North Cobb Christian School is an independent, interdenominational Christian school located in the Kennesaw/Acworth area serving grades K-3 through 12. NCCS was founded by four families in 1983 and currently ranks as one of the largest private schools in the Atlanta area. NCCS believes each student has unique gifts and abilities endowed by God and welcomes the opportunity to help students explore, expand, and enjoy the calling of God on their lives. North Cobb Christian School offers a college preparatory program, a Distinguished Scholar Program, Honors Classes, and Advanced Placement Classes. Additionally, for those students who have clearly defined where their talents lie and how to best use those gifts to serve the Lord, we have developed our Academy Program.

STEM Academy-Students wishing to apply to the Distinctive Academy Programs at NCCS must either meet pre-requisites or audition in order to be accepted.

In addition to our Academies, AP, Honors Classes and Dual Enrollment classes in the Upper School
 

Guidance Program

Individual and in-class guidance programs are offered in lower, middle, and upper school. Our Pathways program in Middle School includes testing to help students answer the questions of who they are, what are their gifts, how they learn, and where their initial career interests lie. Teachers and parents benefit from the valuable information, while students learn to utilize it to make informed decisions about their future. Our Upper School Guidance Department features College and Life Planning Resources. 

TOEFL or iTEP Slate preferred - TOEFL score of 70 for 8th & 9th grade applicants and 80 for 10th & 11th grade.
