History


New Castle Christian Academy began in September of 1965. It was called First Baptist Church Kindergarten with a small group of children. The kindergarten enrollment and programs grew each year through the mid to late 1970's. In 1977 first grade was added and, in 1978 second through sixth grade were added. The 1979-80 school year saw seventh and eighth grades added. The addition of ninth and tenth grades came in 1980-81; 1981-82 completed the school with the addition of eleventh and twelfth grades. In the spring of 1982, the school held its first graduation with eleven students receiving diplomas.

The Alumni has grown to over five hundred and fifty throughout the last twenty-one years. Our Alumni make us proud in the difference that they are making on their world. God certainly has blessed this ministry.
