NCCL School Spring Open House April 29th 9am-11am!
NCCL School’s Social Studies curriculum reflects our philosophy that children learn best when they can connect to history through active involvement such as role plays, field trips, and presentations. The younger NCCL students study topics and locales that have a link to their everyday lives. Older students’ studies go beyond their personal experience and help them explore the complexity of the larger world.
