Sunbury Christian Academy vs. Northumberland Christian School

Sunbury Christian Academy is a private, not for profit Christian school located just north of the borough of Northumberland in beautiful central Pennsylvania.

Sunbury Christian Academy seeks to partner with parents to develop well-educated Christ-followers who positively impact their world for Christ.

SCA was founded in 1974 as a ministry of Sunbury Bible Church (SBC) and is committed to training students spiritually, mentally, and physically. Under SBC, SCA exists to give all glory to God by worshiping Him in spirit and truth. SCA seeks to bring students to saving faith in Christ and to disciple believers to Christ-like maturity, equip them to reach out to all people in love, and proclaim His salvation both near and far.

SCA`s vision is to prepare students to be responsible, well-educated citizens, who reflect a Biblical worldview, as evidenced by a lifestyle that honors and glorifies the Lord.

SCA enrolls students from Pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade with the purpose of helping students realize their full potential by promoting high academic standards. We believe the most effective education takes place in an atmosphere where God is honored, His word taught, and all academic subjects and activities are integrated with a Biblical worldview.

SCA offers a formal program of academic courses with additional classes in art, music, foreign language, physical education and computer. Also available are CSIU support services for reading, math and speech.

Teaching and administrative staff have graduated from accredited colleges and universities and are state certified professionals.

The purpose of Northumberland Christian School is to teach every subject from a Biblical perspective and to help the student to see all of life from God's point of view.

The underlying philosophy of secular education teaches the child that we live in a world of chance, and whatever order is seen in the world is attributed to the laws of "nature"; however, our school continually teaches the child that all is ordered and controlled by God.

The ultimate goal of our entire educational process is the glory of God, and not only man's good and man's development.

Man has not rightly learned, until he has learned to take his place at the feet of his Creator in worship, praise, and submission, and has learned to live to His glory in every detail of life.
