Neuse Charter School in Selma is another educational option in Johnston County. Officially opened in 2007, the school – the county’s first and only free charter school – focuses on international studies, including offering foreign language as early as kindergarten.
NSC provides a curriculum aligned with the North Carolina Standard Course of Study, and all students are taught foreign language. Communication, critical-thinking skills, high academic standards and innovative approaches to teaching are emphasized.
NCS provides instruction for children in grades K-6 during the 2008-09 school year, and it will add a grade level each year through eighth grade. Class size is around 20 students, and each teacher in grades K-2 has an assistant. Parent volunteers assist teachers in the upper grades.
Any child who is a legal resident of North Carolina and has not been expelled from another school is eligible to attend this free public school.
