Class Maximums/Wait Pool
Northwest Christian Schools follows grade and class maximums. If an applicant meets the necessary standards, the student will be placed in our wait pool. When an opening becomes available, the most qualified candidate will be selected. However, priority will be given to children with siblings already enrolled in the school.
NWCS is committed to providing every student, regardless of their unique learning challenges, with access to a gospel-centered education. We understand the specific obstacles that students with learning differences may face and are dedicated to supporting them throughout their educational journey in collaboration with their parents. However, if a learning difference or prior diagnosis is not disclosed to NWCS at the time of application, this may lead to the student’s unenrollment.

Northwest Christian Schools does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
