The mission of Northern Dutchess Christian School is to build a firm foundation for life where the strengths of the individual can be expressed and nurtured by providing a Christ-oriented, Biblically-directed education which instills discernment, vision and practice in character, academics and service. Since all knowledge and creation traces its sources to the omnipotent God, any philosophy which removes the ultimate source of knowledge is faulty and untenable. The congregation of NDBC provides the facilities, and many of its children attend the Christian school. In coming years, the Northern Dutchess Christian School seeks to continually raise its level of academic excellence, strengthen and maintain its extracurricular activities, train ever wiser and more committed Christian disciples, provide Biblically fair compensation and growth opportunities for appropriately trained and certified personnel, and develop its facilities and grounds as needed to support these objectives.
