FACE-UP: The Premier Online High School Program for Christian Homeschooling
NGA’s “FACE-UP” program, inspired by the Christian philosophy of “Look Up Higher,” is designed to shape the next generation of leaders through a holistic and faith-centered educational approach. FACE-UP is anchored in six core pillars:

Faith Integrity (Faith-Based Education)
