ANNUAL REPORT 2016-2017 Photo by Laura Poropatich
Ribbon-cutting for the opening of Moore Family Field
The 2016-2017 school year was one of new ventures at Norfolk Christian: the opening of a new athletic field, a new way of learning in our youngest classrooms, and an inaugural service trip to China that forged new relationships on the other side of the globe. In the coming fiscal year, we look forward to completing the last phases of our athletic field project, finishing the Capital Campaign, and retiring the debt held over from earlier capital improvements. To all who have supported the people and programs of Norfolk Christian, we thank you. Your generosity helps us maintain a standard of excellence in all we do and allows us to focus on our most important mission, equipping students to go into the world and be Ambassadors for Christ.
Our First Service Group to China in Tiananmen Square, June 2017
It is a pleasure to present the 2016-2017 Annual Report of Norfolk Christian Schools. As President of the Board of Trustees, I had the privilege in 2017 of watching a state-of-the-art athletic field come to fruition after years of planning and decades of dreaming. In every other area, I am pleased to see Norfolk Christian consistently modernizing its programs, yet maintaining a solid devotion to our mission set forth by great men of God 65 years ago. With guidance from our Finance Committee, the school has backed its commitment to faculty with increased base pay while keeping Christian education attainable through a balance of competitive tuition and available financial aid. A strong administrative leadership team is continually evaluating and improving the level of academics along with rich extra-curricular offerings at all levels. As a student who was deeply impacted by many adults, especially one of my coaches, I continue to see the value placed on relationship that drives the distinctive experience afforded to both parents and students at Norfolk Christian. As you read the pages of this report, be proud of your school; praise God for the gift of NCS and recognize the collective generosity that sustains the Ambassador mission.

The Honor the Past, Secure the Future Capital Campaign was launched in 2012 in response to a comprehensive feasibility study that provided clear direction from our parent, alumni and donor communities. Resulting campaign goals were to eliminate capital debt, grow the endowment fund, build an on-site athletic field and provide for improvements to fine arts programs. A generous 1 for 1 matching gift was offered that allows donors to give towards any of the campaign goals and have their gifts matched and applied towards reduction of debt. As of June 30, 2017, just over $1 million remained to complete the campaign. Projects to be completed with remaining monies include lights, grandstand and press box at the new Moore Family Field as well as the Carlson Strength & Conditioning Center.

Partially Endowed
The Virginia Mae Midkiff Memorial Scholarship
The Douglas Sandwell Memorial Scholarship
The Virginia Mae Midkiff Memorial Scholarship honors the memory of a beloved mother and Norfolk Christian teacher. It also leaves a legacy by encouraging students to pursue high academic achievement and embody Matthew 5:16.
The Doug Sandwell Memorial Scholarship was established in 2016 to honor the memory of Dr. Sandwell, who taught at Norfolk Christian for 20 years before his death, at age 46, in 2015. Dr. Sandwell lived a life of selfless devotion to the Lord, and his Christ-like example of obedience, humility, integrity, and service inspired students and colleagues alike to honor God in all walks of life. This memorial scholarship honors one student from the senior class who lives a life consistent with the principles that Dr. Sandwell taught passionately in his Bible classes and lived out in his daily life.
To that end, the scholarship will provide $500 towards college tuition for a Norfolk Christian senior who possesses a Grade Point Average of at least 3.5, plans to attend a four year institution of higher learning, and demonstrates a life that lives out Matthew 5:16.Â

The Grace Mutzabaugh Memorial Scholarship
The Barb Thierry Honorary Scholarship
The Mark Rodriguez Memorial Worship Scholarship
The Young Kim Visual Arts Scholarship
Grace Mutzabaugh served as a teacher and later as Principal of the Norfolk Christian Lower School in the formative years of the school’s history. She embodied the founding spirit and mission of Norfolk Christian to prepare students as ambassadors for Christ.
Barb Thierry served as both teacher and principal in her 42 years at Norfolk Christian, most of which was at the Norfolk Lower School. Barb was recruited by founder John Dunlap and embraced the founding spirit and mission of Norfolk Christian, as seen by her lifelong dedication to creating young Ambassadors for Christ.
The Mark Rodriguez Memorial Worship Scholarship is given in honor of NCS junior Mark Rodriguez, who went to be with the Lord in 2014 on his way home from Norfolk Christian’s graduation. Mark was a relentless pursuer of Jesus and never happier than when he was leading others into His Savior’s presence through worship.
A Korean native, Young Kim came to Norfolk Christian at 16 after being in an exchange program at Old Dominion University. Young’s NCS art instructor, Sharon Ewell, recognized her developing gifts and encouraged her to enter a student art contest. That led to Young being awarded the Congressional Art Award, then her art being displayed in Washington D.C., and to further opportunities that led Young to the prestigious Chicago Art Institute and to a prolific career in fashion and art.
In 2013, one of Miss Mutzabaugh’s former students, Dr. Caralee Capone, and her husband Howard Bethel established an endowed tuition aid scholarship to honor Grace Mutzabaugh and encourage students who will pursue a post-secondary education, following Grace Mutzabaugh in her desire to positively impact the lives of students through teaching.
In 2014, an honorary endowed scholarship was established in the name of Barb Thierry by a former student, Dr. Caralee Capone, and her husband Howard Bethel to honor Miss Thierry’s legacy by encouraging Norfolk Christian students in their pursuit of Christian ministry and/or ongoing education at a Christian college or university.
This scholarship is awarded to an NCS 10th - 12th grade student for the pursuit of worship training.

Mark’s story and testimony, as told through his journals, independently inspired two Norfolk Christian alumnae and the Class of 1985 to establish a $1000 scholarship to carry on his legacy.
In 2016, Young Kim established a $1000 annual fine arts award to honor Mrs. Ewell’s impact as an instructor and encourage current NCS students who demonstrate giftedness and a serious desire to pursue study of the arts.

WHERE YOUR DOLLARS GO Although every gift advances our mission of preparing Ambassadors for Christ, a variety of funds allows donors to provide for specific family and student support.
Annual Fund
Capital Campaign
Always our greatest need, the Annual Fund fills the gap between tuition revenue and the operating costs of the school. Gifts to the Annual Fund are put to immediate use at our three campuses for salaries and benefits, technology, classroom resources and program supplies.
Less than $1 million remains of the current $9 million capital campaign for capital improvements. Completing the campaign will bring lights and bleachers to our new athletic field, as well as retire all building debt. All gifts to the current campaign are matched 1 for 1, giving NCS double the benefit!
Scholarships
Worthy Servants Fund
A gift to one of our scholarships is a gift to the future of Norfolk Christian's most dedicated students. Five scholarships provide a contribution towards college tuition for graduating seniors while three provide for training in skill areas or a tuition discount for current NCS students.
Low-Income Financial Aid Your gift makes a Norfolk Christian education accessible to bright students with significant need. Provided in partnership with the Dunlap Garrick Christian Community Foundation, donors to low income tuition aid can earn up to a 65% state income tax credit through NAP and EISTC programs.
This fund was started by NCS parents to bless those who dedicate their lives to our students. Twice each year, Worthy Servants provides a monetary bonus to faculty and staff as a thank you for their exceptional work and commitment to Christian education.
Planned Giving A planned gift is an ideal way to impact Norfolk Christian’s ministry for years to come through a will, trust or estate plan. Norfolk Christian partners with the Barnabas Foundation to offer free and confidential consultation with Christian attorneys who view giving from an eternal and Biblical perspective.
Designated giving, naming opportunities and business sponsorships are just some of the other avenues our donors choose to support NCS. The Advancement Office is a starting point for those passionate about supporting a program of particular interest.

RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY for Norfolk Christian's new field
On a sunny afternoon in late November, a crowd of Ambassador families and friends gathered to celebrate the ribbon-cutting and grand opening of the new athletic field. The name "Moore Family Field" would later be unveiled at an official dedication ceremony on March 18, 2017. Girls Soccer played the inaugural game and junior Madison Capps scored the first-ever point for the Ambassadors on their new home turf, leading the way for a 2-1 NCS victory. Boys Lacrosse would also host its first season at home during the spring of 2017. Pictured participants at the ribbon-cutting include: Todd Savage and son Ben, Roxanne Visser '84, Doug and Drew '09 Barnhart, Head of School Dan Tubbs, CDR Duane and Danni Close with children Trei and Desiree, Special Guest Adam Ballou '11, Jeremy Ingram, Board President Brad Hobbs and wife Molly with daughter Madeline

Honoring Gary King Gary King spent nineteen years at Norfolk Christian as a PE teacher, Athletic Director and coach of multiple sports, most notably basketball and soccer. Former players remember his integrity, steady demeanor and focus on defense. Among his accomplishments is the boys JV basketball team of 1969, which went 21-1 and claimed the season championship title. With much of his time focused on JV teams, Gary made a significant impact on the life of then middle school student Brad Hobbs. In 2016, C. Bradford and Molly Hobbs provided a generous leadership gift towards the athletic field to name the Athletic Hall of Honor after Coach King, recognizing and appreciating his legacy of molding Godly students and athletes. On Friday, March 17, 2017, a dinner in Mr. King's honor was held in the Atrium of the Smith Gym with many Norfolk Christian legends in attendance, including Bob and Nancy Miller, Dave Northup and numerous former players and colleagues. Jim Hinshaw spoke of Mr. King's influence and the crowd was invited to the unveiling of the newly-named Gary King Athletic Hall of Honor. It was a welldeserved tribute for a man who changed the lives of so many young men at Norfolk Christian.

The Dedication of Moore Family Field More than 300 people from six decades of Norfolk Christian's history, along with neighbors and city officials, came out on March 18, 2017 to see the name of the new field revealed and to dedicate it to the Lord. Daniella Moore Close explained to a packed crowd why the project was so important to her family as a tool to develop not just athletes but young men and women of character, work ethic and principal.

March 18, 2017 Norfolk Christian Upper School It was a rainy, chilly day outside but the standing-room-only crowd had thoughts of sunny afternoons as they sat near the entrance to Moore Family Field. This day, designed to celebrate God's blessing, was also a time to dedicate the field and all who play on it to His Glory. After the field's name was revealed, NCS parent Daniella Moore Close spoke about her family's commitment to building Godly character through sports. A time of prayer was led by Head of School Dan Tubbs and families got a first look at their commemorative bricks as the Legacy Walkway was unveiled.
Norfolk Christian's Upper School chorus, Voce Deus, performed the National Anthem to kick off the dedication ceremony.

With Servant Hearts Cultivating a heart for the needs of others is an essential part of training Ambassadors for Christ, as kids learn to see the world through His eyes. From their earliest days, Norfolk Christian students are guided to look for chances to be the hands and feet of Jesus. So when an elementary school in Portsmouth lost its library to flooding, no one coached our Beach Campus 4th graders; they asked to start a book drive and collected more than 1100 books to replenish what the friends they'd never met had lost. When our sixth graders saw the joy it brought a group of senior citizens to talk and laugh together, they created a puppet show to entertain them. And when a group of high schoolers each had $10 to start a small business for finance class, they decided to pool their profits and donate them to the local children's hospital. From scheduled group outings to individual projects to the impromptu leading of the Holy Spirit, Ambassadors are continually finding new ways to impact their community for Christ.

The 8th Annual John Elder Golf Tournament May 15, 2017 At 75 degrees and sunny, it was a perfect day for the 112 golfers who met at Cahoon Plantation in Chesapeake. Their goal was not just to come in under par but to raise money for two causes close to John Elder's heart - teacher bonuses and classroom technology. Mr. Elder spent 38 years in Norfolk Christian classrooms himself and is one of the school's biggest fans. The event was first named after Mr. Elder in 2009, when long-time Tournament Chairman, Matt Tiffany ‘87, proposed the change to honor Mr. Elder’s long legacy. This year, a generous match offered by an anonymous donor gave the JEC the highest fundraising total in tournament history. The first $10,000 raised went to staff bonuses through our Worthy Servants Fund, which was then matched with a second $10,000 designated for classroom technology. A final $10k match went to capital campaign debt reduction. All in all, $40,200 was raised for Norfolk Christian during this great day on the golf course. Sixtythree new computers were purchased and proceeds contributed to the $959 bonus received by full-time staff during the 2016-2017 school year. Thank you to all who came out and enjoyed the day. 24
