Welcome Our New Principal, Mrs. Cetnar!

Nittany Christian School is delighted to welcome Priscilla Cetnar as the new Principal, beginning today, July 21.

Priscilla is a summa cum laude graduate of Nyack College (B.S. in Elementary Education). She has extensive experience as an educator, including eight years as the fifth grade teacher at NCS in the early 2000s. Priscilla is married to Phil, and they have two grown sons, Daniel and Joshua, who are both NCS alumni. She is an active member of the Park Forest Baptist Church where she serves on the Women’s Ministry team and the Missions Committee, and is a small group leader. 

We are grateful that God has provided this opportunity for NCS and look forward to great days ahead at the school.

Fun Fall Field Trip: First Grade!

First Grade had a blast on their fall field trip this week! We’re thankful the rain held off enough for them to take a walk to Orchard Park. The afternoon was packed with fun, fall activities and playing on the playground.

Fun Fall Field Trip: Second Grade

Our Second Grade Class had a great time on their fun, fall field trip to Lederer Park. They enjoyed a picnic lunch followed by fall activities that included a nature scavenger hunt, nature walk, and a fun activity building creatures and characters out of sticks, leaves, and other objects found in nature.

They had a blast getting out for some fresh air on what felt like a summer day!

NCS Cares Tuition Assistance Fund

The COVID-19 pandemic has radically altered life as we know it and has created significant challenges for some families in our school community. Families that don’t typically struggle to make ends meet are faced with the strain of lack of income during the extended stay-at-home orders.

As a Christian community, it is important that we join together to help those in need. We are so thankful that some donors have reached out to help us minister to our school community at this time. We invite you to consider partnering with us as we help with the care of our school family. We want to ease the burden on our families, but could use help to do so. Giving from our donors is a vital part of our ability to fulfill our mission. This is true now more than ever.  We are overwhelmed by the generosity and concern these people have expressed for our school community.

Out of thoughtful consideration for our school family, we have decided to postpone Race For Education as a means of raising funds this year because of the current economic crisis so that we can shift to serve our community through the NCS Cares Tuition Assistance Fund. We care very much about our school family and would like to help. We recognize that there are many organizations assisting with basic needs, but not many helping with tuition assistance. If you are interested in helping a family with tuition, please give through the NCS Cares Tuition Assistance Fund via the link provided. The School Administration and Board will collaborate to assess the needs and your donation will be filtered from the NCS Cares Tuition Assistance Fund to the tuition bill for those families in need. 

If you can help a family in our community, we invite you to invest in our community by making a donation to the NCS Cares Tuition Assistance Fund. Please continue to pray with us for healing and provision at this time.

With Heartfelt Gratitude,

NCS Administration
