Such formidable years often bring out the worst in students, but NFC created an atmosphere that fostered growth in my faith that would help me make wise decisions that would guide my future for years to come.”</p>
I often wondered if my small Christian school education had me prepared for college, and then law school. I quickly learned that I was as well prepared, if not better prepared, than my college classmates for the rigors of college writing and classwork.
