School Notes

  • Established in 1985, New Covenant School is a Christian day school in Lexington, MA, where Preschool & Elementary K-5 students grow in godly wisdom and love.
  • Through our distinctive Daniel Model, we equip students with exceptional academics, spiritual and character formation, inspired arts, and meaningful project-based service learning.
New Covenant School (NCS) is a private Christian school in Lexington, Massachusetts, serving students from Preschool through Grade 5.Since 1985, NCS has provided a close-knit learning environment where small classes, strong academics, and meaningful relationships give students the opportunity to be known, challenged, and encouraged to grow.

NCS takes a distinctive approach to Preschool and Elementary education by combiningacademic excellence with innovation, spiritual and character formation, and hands-on learning. Students are encouraged to think deeply, create boldly, solve problems, and apply their learning to the world around them. NCS was thefirst school in the nation to pilot an elementary curriculum with Lemelson-MIT as a Partner in Invention Education, and is aSilver Member of Trek-AI, reflecting the school's commitment to innovation and preparing students for a rapidly changing technological landscape.

The NCS experience extends beyond traditional academics throughSTEM and invention education, visual and performing arts, project-based service learning, outdoor exploration, and opportunities to develop leadership and responsibility. At the same time, a Christ-centered education helps students grow in wisdom, integrity, compassion, courage, and an understanding of their God-given gifts. Students also experience daily Morning Chapel where the entire student body gathers for worship and are encouraged with Bible lessons and prayer from our Spiritual Formation Team.

At NCS, education is about more than preparing students for the next grade or the next stage of school.It is about purposefully equipping them with the knowledge, character, wisdom, creativity, and confidence to make a meaningful difference in the world.

Great school with caring and loving teachers. Amazing kind students who lift each other up. The character and spiritual development I have witnessed are above and beyond. Additionally, I have seen improvement every year and I have been part of the parent community since 2016.
