In 1982, the
founders of what would become New Covenant Christian School made a
covenant with each other and with God to start a school built on the
lordship of Jesus Christ and the principles of Holy Scripture.
New Covenant Christian School was incorporated
in 1983 as a nondenominational, Christian elementary school.
Shortly thereafter, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts recognized it as a
tax-exempt, nonprofit organization. The School began operation in
September 1985 with classes for kindergarten through grade four.
Grades five and six were added in subsequent years.
In 1997, a full Middle
School program was begun for grades six through eight. The Lower
School campus was housed in Ashland (Federated Church of Ashland) and
the Middle School campus in Framingham (Vineyard Christian Fellowship,
Metrowest).
In 2002, the School began leasing the former
Bigelow Elementary School building from the City of Marlborough.
The new facility contains 19 classrooms, 4 offices, gymnasium and
cafeteria. The property adjoins a public park with soccer field,
baseball diamond, tennis and basketball courts, playground and pool.
In 2003, a preschool
program was started in the former Margaret Davitt Center on Edgell Road
in Framingham.
NCCS celebrated its 20th anniversary of
educating students in 2005.
In 2008 NCCS began a journey to find a new permanent location and made
an interim location at the Living Waters Church Facility in Marlboro
center.
