About Northern Lights ABC

Northern Lights ABC School is an alternative educational program established in 1978. Its founders were dedicated to a philosophy embracing a back-to-basics approach to education. Character education, a strong emphasis on citizenship, values, discipline and patriotism make this program unique.
Parents who choose our school for their children should believe in the tenets upon which our school was founded. Strong, committed parental support is essential for any program to successfully educate children for the future.
Parents, children and staff working together for a common goal characterizes Northern Lights ABC School and contributes to its effectiveness in educating our most precious children. Our commitment to maintain the ABC philosophy and objectives is vital and ongoing. Join us in partnership to continue to maintain, nurture and grow to meet the needs of students.
We Offer Tours!
Interested in the lottery for NLABC? We request that you attend a tour in order to determine if our program is a good fit for your child and family.
Tours are led by ABC Advisory Board members and provide an opportunity to ask questions, view grade level work samples, and review the NLABC Philosophy Statement and Responsibility Agreement. Tours are geared towards parents, so please take advantage of childcare if you have it available.
Please stay tuned for upcoming in-person tours for the 2026-2027 school year.
