Recognizing that the primary responsibility for the education of children rests with their parents (Eph. 6:4, Deut. 6:6 & 7), the school seeks to work closely with the Christian home and under the authority of Pleasant Acres Free Will Baptist Church to instill in students standards for life and learning that is consistent with the Scriptures and which results in Christ-like character. The academy
wishes to produce students with a Christian worldview and with a discernment of right and wrong based on the clear precepts and principles of Scripture. In addition, the school purposes to provide an academic program of high quality so that students may be prepared in a satisfactory manner for college, ready and able to perform God’s will for their lives. We believe that God has instilled certain spiritual and natural gifts to every young person. This can be nurtured and fostered at NBCA with the offering of fine arts instruction and extracurricular activities that further develop the whole child. By the direct teaching and godly examples of Christian faculty, students will be encouraged to live exemplary and Christ-like lives. New Bern Christian Academy is open to students who are in harmony with its purpose. Students who are accepted for enrollment are expected to be cooperative, obedient, well mannered, and positive toward the school and its distinctives. The school has a racially non-discriminatory policy. That is, we do not discriminate against applicants and students on the basis of race, color, and national or ethnic origin. We believe this policy to be consistent with the clear teaching of Scripture (James 2:1-9).
