Nicaragua Christian Academy
Employment


Miss Franklin with First Graders Nicaragua Christian Academy is a unique school with an exciting task in Nicaragua. The country of Nicaragua is in desperate need for moral leadership, suffering for hundreds of years at the hands of leaders who have put their own agenda ahead of the good of the country. The students enrolled at NCA come from well-connected families and will be placed into positions of leadership and influence in the future. In keeping with our motto of Academic Excellence with a Christian Foundation, NCA seeks to train up future leaders to demonstrate true servant leadership and make decisions based on the Word of God and a compassion for their country. As a teacher at NCA, you are given the awesome responsibility of teaching and preparing children for leadership in government, business, education, the church, and their communities. Our vision is to reclaim the country of Nicaragua for God!
