Great school with caring and loving teachers. Amazing kind students who lift each other up. The character and spiritual development I have witnessed are above and beyond. Additionally, I have seen improvement every year and I have been part of the parent community since 2016.

We have been part of this amazing school and the community for 3 years! They've helped my child throughout the years and we feel like family.

The teachers at NCS know the students individually and know how to call out more in them. The expeditionary style of learning is very holistic and kids are able to experience learning which shapes them as people.

This is a wonderful school. Parental involvement is highly encouraged. It is affordable and the school community is of humble and modest means.

It is amazing how the different aged children at this school all help each other at lunchtime and at recess. The older kids (grades 4 & 5) take the younger kids "under their wings" and frequently go to their class to be reading buddies. They all respect each other and learn from each other. It is a pleasure to work here. We have small classes which allow the students to have wonderful relationships with the teachers and with their classmates.

I have a daughter in first grade and one in preschool, both at New Covenant School. This is an AMAZING Christian school a hidden gem in the Boston area. My first grader is learning how to be an "author" (not just writing assignments), and at home is writing poems and publishing her own stories (well, just typing them out, but she is so excited about it!). My first grader started preschool shy, reserved, and quiet. You would never know it now! Through the individual attention, encouragement, and challenging academics she has grown in self-confidence, academic skills and -- most important to me -- depth of character (they emphasize character development throughout everything they do, not just outward "good behavior" but inward "attitude of the heart"). This is a unique Christian school.

New Covenant is an incredibly supportive, Christian environment. It's so refreshing to have consistency in what we teach at home and what is learned at school!

I am amazed! My daughter is a 4th grader at New Covenant School in Arlington, Massachusetts and has been going there since kindergarten. The Christian / Expeditionary Learning framework allows such deep connection to the subject matter, to the process and final products, to the community, to the others students, and to the faculty. My daughter is joyful, confident, and grounded in both her life and learning and I attribute that so heavily to New Covenant. World class faculty; great visual, performing, and dramatic arts programs; deep spiritual formation and character development, all in a small, nurturing environment -- all at New Covenant.
