NICS Acquires On-line School to Bolster Class Offerings Worldwide
March 03, 2008
NICS has recently signed an official agreement to acquire a fully accredited and proven Online School with an existing 600+ student body. This will serve to supplement the NICS/Oasis network as well as continue to serve existing private schools in the United States and worldwide.
Founded: 1998; NICS Managed: June 2008
Grades: Grade 7 - Grade 12
In response to a growing need for quality school options in remote locations worldwide, needed teachers/courses in existing NICS/Oasis schools and international schools in general, and the need for additional classes in Christian schools in the USA and schools in general around the world, NICS has signed documents to acquire NorthStar Academy (NSA) currently based in Colorado Springs, CO. NorthStar Academy is accredited with the North Central Association of Schools & Colleges and CITA.
Management of NorthStar Academy (NSA) will transfer from the founder/owner/director on 01 June 2008 to NICS. NICS-NorthStar will continue to build upon its strong heritage looking to the future to understand the growing needs and demands in the On-line Educational market.
Teachers can explore the job openings for NorthStar on the NICS website. Teachers can also apply through the normal channels on the NICS website.
NICS/Oasis is very excited to see how God will use this channel for His glory. Please pray for this project and that God would direct NICS according to His plan.
