Getting here from Sullivan Square
From Sullivan Square it is Broadway and Mystic Avenue north into Medford, then Salem Street — about ten to twelve minutes without traffic and rarely more than fifteen.
Sullivan is our closest Orange Line connection: the 101 bus runs from Sullivan Square straight up Salem Street past the school, roughly fifteen to twenty minutes. Leaving Sullivan by about 7:30 gets you here before 8:00.
Times above are our estimate from published MBTA schedules, not a school guarantee. Call the office to confirm the morning 101 that current families ride.

Why Sullivan Square families come to NECA
- One bus from an Orange Line station to a Christian school that costs $375 a month, all in.
- Charlestown, Everett, and Somerville families use this connection; ask the office who is already making the trip.
- Individualized placement means a child new to the school, or new to the country, starts exactly where they are.
How the school works
Your child is tested in each subject and placed where they actually are — not where their birthday says they should be. They set their own daily goals, work at their own desk, and can't move forward until they've mastered the material at 80% or better. A student who is ahead in math isn't held back. A student who needs another two weeks on fractions gets another two weeks. Nobody gets left behind and nobody gets bored.
