| Recently a photo of Nittany Christian students visiting ClearWater Conservancy was used in their winter appeal! We were happy to be featured in such an important mailing for another great local group.
Through outdoor education initiatives like its Connections program, which pays for nearly 2,000 elementary and middle school students to enjoy a day at Millbrook Marsh Nature Center annually, ClearWater works to give kids a link with the outdoors. Fourth graders from Nittany Christian School get an ecology lesson on the boardwalk at Millbrook Marsh, above. |

| Welcome to Nittany Christian! We are sure that as you visit our website, you will find interesting facts about our School that may not match your idea of what a "typical" Christian school is like. Our priority is to serve the Lord while allowing kids to be kids, all in an environment conducive to learning.
 The students who walk through our front door on a typical morning are smiling and enthusiastic, ready to start another day, loving to learn and learning to love! We have high academic standards that are met through traditional classrooms that take a nontraditional approach to learning. Yes, we use textbooks, but they are not the focus of our teaching methods. The teachers allow the students to explore topics, use a hands-on approach to learning, and facilitate activities that motivate students to want to know more.
Christ is the center of our curriculum and is integrated into every aspect of the School day. Bible is taught daily and there are weekly chapels. The Great Commission is emphasized through a special "Missions Month" and other projects.
Besides reading, writing, and arithmetic, students are given an opportunity to explore music, art, physical education, health, library resources, technology, and a variety of extracurricular activities.
 Nittany Christian is not just a school - we are a family! We are a body of believers joined for a common goal of educating our students with the highest possible academic standards in a loving environment that encourages spiritual growth in Jesus Christ. We care about who each student is and is becoming. If a student or family member is hurting, we all hurt, and we support that student and family in the best ways possible.
We admit that this website might stir some curiosity about us! Please feel free to contact the School with any questions you may have. We anticipate answering your questions and look forward to serving your family in the future. |
