North County Christian School in Florissant is celebrating its 50th year providing Christian education in North St. Louis County. The school was established to serve kindergarten students in 1962 under the direction and vision of Reverend Udell Moss, then the pastor of The Ferguson Church of the Nazarene. In 1966, the school and church moved to the current church location at 1309 N. Elizabeth, where they were able to expand by adding daycare services, and extending their elementary school to third grade. Over the next several years, additional grade levels were added, and in 1977 the high school had its first graduating class of four students.
The school continued growing, and in 2004, North County Christian School purchased its current campus at 845 Dunn Road, formerly the location of St. Thomas Aquinas High School. In 2007, the school purchased the adjoining athletic field and parking lot to complete the current 14 acre campus. NCCS has a current enrollment of 330 students from preschool through 12th grade.
The kickoff event to this 50th anniversary celebration will be a BBQ/picnic to be held at the school on Saturday, September 1, from 4-8 pm. All current students and families, alumni, current and previous employees and friends of NCCS are invited to attend.
