NorthPoint Christian Schools는 미시간주 그랜드 래피즈 북동쪽에 위치한 사립 기독교 학교입니다.NorthPoint Christian Schools는 '예수 그리스도를 위해 학생들이 그들의 세계에 영향을 미칠 수 있도록 하는 것'[3]에 전념하고 있다.이 약속은 학업, 정신 생활, 운동, 과외 활동을 통해 달성된다.
역사
노스포인트 기독교학교는 1972년 그랜드래피드 침례학교로 설립됐으며 유치원부터 8학년까지 90명의 학생이 [4]재학 중이다.1973년 봄, 19에이커의 토지가 비서 브라더스 건설에 의해 18,000평방피트의 건물이 건설된[5] 레오나드 스트리트에 구입되었다.1973년 9월 문을 연 레너드 스트리트 캠퍼스는 유치원부터 [6]10학년까지 280명의 학생이 재학 중이다.
1974년부터 1976년까지 이동식 교실을 구입했고, 크레스트뷰 초등학교는 그랜드 래피즈 공립학교에서 임대되어 300명의 초등학생에게 문을 열었다.1976년 졸업반(교내 1반)에는 14명의 [7]졸업생이 있었다.1978-1979학년도 동안 크레스트뷰 초등학교는 Grand Rapids Bedtist [8]Academy에 의해 인수되었습니다.1982년까지 그랜드 래피즈 침례 아카데미는 4개의 초등학교 캠퍼스(크레스트뷰와 3개의 위성 학교)를 가지고 125명의 새로운 고등학교 학생들이 특별 교육 프로그램과 [9]함께 추가되었다.1982년 12월 편지는 유치원에서 12학년까지 [10]1,194명의 학생이 등록했다고 보고했다.
1990년, 그랜드 래피즈 침례 아카데미는 목적서를 갱신했습니다: "그랜드 래피즈 침례 아카데미는 각 학생들이 하나님의 절대적 진실을 삶의 모든 영역에 통합하도록 훈련시키기 위해 가정 및 교회와 협력하여 존재합니다.아카데미의 주된 목표는 학생들이 그리스도 안에서 완전히 성숙하도록 하는 것입니다.그러면 학생들은 그들이 [11]살고 있는 세상에 인격, 행동, 지식에서 기독교도를 드러낼 수 있습니다."
이 학교의 이름은 후에 지역 헌장 '아카데미'[12]와의 혼동을 피하기 위해 1996년에 그랜드 래피즈 침례학교로 변경되었다.1999-2000년까지 그랜드 래피즈 침례학교는 노스 센트럴 협회와 크리스천 스쿨스 [13]인터내셔널 협회에 의해 최종 인가되어 크리스천 스쿨스 [14]인터내셔널의 회원이 되었다.1990년대와 2000년대 초에 걸쳐, 운동장, 미디어 센터, 추가 교실, 카페테리아, 라커룸, [15][16]사무실을 포함한 새로운 시설들이 학교에 추가되었다.
2004년, 이 학교는 그랜드 래피즈 침례학교에서 노스 포인트 기독교 [17]학교로 교명을 변경했다고 발표했다.2006년, 짐 호프만은 교육감이 되었고, 축구 프로그램이 시작되었고, 홈스쿨 옵션이 [18]제공되었습니다.2008년, 사랑, 선교, 이미지 의무는 NorthPoint Christian Schools [19][20]커리큘럼에 통합되었습니다.같은 해, 「홈&스쿨 하이브리드 프로그램」이 개시되어 11명의 학생이 3~5학년 [21]반에 입학했습니다.
2011년 NorthPoint Christian Schools는 스페인어 몰입 프로그램을 개설하고 6학년 학생들을 유치원과 초등학교 캠퍼스에서 중·고등학교 캠퍼스로 옮겼습니다.그 후, 보육 프로그램이 개시되어 새로운 테크놀로지 이니셔티브가 발표되어 2013년에 [22]Joel Westa가 교육감으로 채용되었습니다.NorthPoint Christian Schools는 2015년에 토드 톨스마를 [23]학교장으로 채용하는 것과 함께 최대 규모의 졸업반(102명 졸업)을 발표했습니다.2016년에, 네 개의 새로운 학술 프로그램이 시작되었습니다: 자연 기반 유치원, 세대 간 유치원, 빅 픽처 러닝, 그리고 중학교 [24]캠퍼스에서의 스페인어 몰입.2018년에는 교실 증설과 [25]미술동 건립을 목표로 믿음의 전진자본 캠페인을 시작했습니다.
2022~2023학년도 현재 3학년부터 12학년까지의 입학자는 1,150명이다.
