"Education is a shared commitment between dedicated teachers, motivated students, and enthusiastic parents with high expectations." Our mission and vision are implemented into practice through strategic guidance and preparation. Values and codes of ethics are instilled into our education system through curricular, co-curricular, and extracurricular activities that mold the individualistic character of our pupils, rendering them lifelong learners ready for global challenges.
Our commitment to our mission is the bedrock for our success. since student empowerment can only be achieved through the mastering of diverse competencies that arm learners with the necessary skills to confront challenges that may hinder their potentials, we, at NESN, have merged the Lebanese and the American curriculum to provide our students with better opportunities to tackle university entrance exams. Standardized tests such as TOFEL, S.A.T., and MAP (Measures of Academic Progress) have been integrated into our curriculum to trigger students' critical thinking abilities and facilitate their process in higher education.
"Actions speak louder than words". This is our aspiration for the present and the future. With your collaboration and our commitment, we hope to exceed our potentials and our mutual goals. All children are unique individuals and all can learn. We can develop within each student the desire to know, the tools to seek, and the ability to find, understand and use information strong communication between home and school forms the basis for the caring, nurturing, family atmosphere that is essential to our school. This atmosphere promotes excellence in teaching that results in high academic achievement and an environment that challenges learns and nurtures individual talents. Our primary aim is to encourage each student to be self-confident, inquiring, and tolerant, with an independent mind, and to be an individual who respects the difference of others.
Our school has a well-equipped and furnished audio-video room. The main purpose of having this facility for students is the fact that whatever is seen by our eyes is retained by the brain more effectively than just reading or listening to it. Teach kids to respect others, start a dialogue, experiment with material, observe, find their voice, self-evaluate make connections, express themselves, learn from their mistakes, clean up, reflect on their work, embrace diversity, persevere, have an opinion. Appreciate beauty, break away from the stereotype, see another point and innovate.
From Grade 1 to 6, we urge our students to think big, dream high, and work hard to turn their dreams into reality. School is not just a building where students read and write. The definition of the word "SCHOOL" is more of a concept. It is the eager staff that interacts together and is committed to the concept of SCHOOL to educate students to their highest level of ability. Our purpose has been to help you grow into intelligent, compassionate, and responsible citizens.
The National Evangelical School in Nabatieh started its academic mission in 1925 under the supervision of the American Commissionary by the name of "American School for Girls in Nabatieh."It was composed of one rented room that included a few students who were learning the principles of reading, writing, calculating, in addition to the English language and arts. The school's supervisor, Lewis Loe, had stayed till 1935 when the school moved to a new rented building.
Built the third floor in the dorm, in addition to enlarging the dining room. Then, built a three-floor building the first one was for children, and the other was for the boys in the boarding department. Expanded the playgrounds and bought new land that fit with the continuous prosperity of the school. And put in charge specialized teachers for teaching at all levels. Since 1975, N.E.S.N. is a mixed school in all its stages. Mr. Boutrus was transferred to Saida in 1975 for managing the Evangelical School of art, and Mr. Munther Antoun was assigned as principal in the school in Nabatieh. In this period the security circumstances became worse in Nabatieh.
As a result, the school couldn't continue teaching. So the school's administration decided to wait for the end of Art's school in Saida to be used in summer 1977 to complete the year, and the lessons of the year 1978 - 1979 were hung up. During the first invasion of South Lebanon in 1978, the school was bombarded again, and most of the people in the city emigrated. The close continued until 1982 when NESN reopened the elementary part. And it began to add one class each year till it reached the second secondary class. But it couldn't open the third-second class because of the absence of qualified teachers and the difficulty of bringing them to Nabatieh for the lack of security. Later, in 1999-2000, the school opened its third secondary class - Life Science - and saved its student's transformation to other schools. NESN has proved a great success so far.
