As students enter secondary school (grades 7th through 12th), the academic demands increase and expectations rise. They are no longer passive learners receiving information. They are testing it, dissecting it, and deciding what holds up.
That same intellectual independence inevitably turns toward faith. Inherited beliefs are examined. Assumptions are challenged. They are not satisfied with surface answers.
North Idaho Christian School meets that moment with disciplined academics and a faith that does not fear hard questions. Teachers equip students to reason carefully, confront difficult ideas directly, and anchor their convictions in Biblical truth.
We review each application carefully, considering your child's academic records, your family's alignment with our mission, and whether we have space in the appropriate grade. We also look at teacher recommendations as well as any additional information you provide. Our goal is to admit families who are excited about partnering with us to raise students who love Jesus and are equipped to impact the world. You'll typically hear back within 1 week]of submitting a complete application.

Variable Tuition can make Christian education financially possible
At North Idaho Christian school, we strongly believe that our Biblical role in Christian education is to be in partnership with the home to model Christ-like lifestyles. We are sincerely committed to serving the Lord, and to the connection that we share with each family regarding your child’s needs.
Christian education enriches the lives of students both spiritually and academically. We know that Christian education is an investment that may seem financially out of reach for some families. At North Idaho Christian School we believe this quality educational experience should be available to as many families as possible. To ease the financial burden for qualifying families, North Idaho Christian is pleased to offer variable tuition, a needs-based tuition assistance program. Qualifying families may receive a tuition discount of up to 50%. Families apply through FACTS, a confidential online vendor that helps determine the financial need of families.
