North Florida Christian School (NFCS) is a private school located in Tallahassee, Florida, accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, the Florida Association of Christian Colleges, and the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation. It was founded in 1966 by Pastor Rayburn L. Blair and James H. Pound, Jr. Mr. Pound served as principal and school superintendent until his retirement in 1988. The school has classes from K3 to 12th grade, and it serves students from several counties in north Florida and South Georgia.
