Walk-A-THON
NCA Spring Walk-a-Thon
The NCA Walk -a-Thon is a long-standing NCA spring fundraising tradition. This is one of our two major fund-raisers every year; this tradition encompasses so much more than the actual walking.
The 5 week program begins in late April and culminates in June with our exciting school-wide Walk-a-Thon Celebration Event Day – a celebration of the year for all to attend! What happens leading up to the event, however, is what sets it apart! Each year’s theme shares a message of something foundational NCA message and points to our commitment to a Christ-centered education.
As a result, our school community has benefitted tremendously from donor-funded projects such as the new sports court, our huge playground structures, classroom Promethean boards, STEM, safety & security upgrades and so much more. Careful and intentional stewardship of donated funds has contributed to an educational experience like none other.
