This month begins the first
of three Open House events, designed to introduce the school, faculty, and
staff of Northpoint Christian School to prospective families and their students.
The school will host the first Open house on Sunday afternoon, October 20, from
2-4 PM on the campus of Northpoint Christian School, 7400 Getwell Road,
Southaven, MS 38672.
What should someone
look for in a school? Although there are different ways to evaluate a school, I
recommend that you look at a school from such perspectives as its emphasis on
academics, the strength of its athletic, performing arts, and fine arts
programs, the spiritual growth of students, and the student life. Northpoint
Christian School strives for excellence in each of these areas.
Our mission captures
the heart of our focus, to be a Christ-centered, college preparatory school
that enables our students to know and honor Jesus Christ, grow in knowledge and
wisdom, and reach their God-given potential.

Recent achievements in our athletic programs indicate our desire for
excellence. Last month, our Boys and Girls Varsity Golf Teams each finished fourth in the TSSAA State Golf Tournament held at Willowbrook Golf Course in Manchester, TN. Phillip Hickam finished fourth individually out of 36 golfers. The boys’ tournament team consisted of seniors Phillip Hickam, Ben Otten, and Taylor Newton along with juniors Heath Newsom and Daylen Tapp. The girls’ team members were seniors Rebecca Jenkins and Candice Walker along with junior Marty White.
Last week, our Drama Department presented the junior musical, Dear Edwina Jr. in the Performing Arts Center on the school’s campus. The performances were the highlight of the annual Drama Conservatory that featured 38 students in grades 1-9.
As both Chef Ludmilla, left and
played by Sarah Katherine Meek, and the Fairy Forkmother, played by Mikayla
House, joined in the celebration, Edwina Spoonapple, played by Mary Addison
Wadsworth, explained how to set a table.

This week, our fine arts department displayed movie posters using positive and negative space interchangeably.

Finally, two weeks ago, students, faculty and members of the school administration met at the flagpole where class and student council chaplains led in prayer for our world, country, state, city, parents, teachers, and students. Later that morning, four members of our faculty led worship and an alum from the class of 2004 presented the devotion at the regularly scheduled high school chapel program.
We invite you to attend
the Open House on October 20, 2013. Eat some light refreshments, talk with faculty members for your student, tour the school, and learn more about this fine school.
