GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Culturally diverse, language classes. We currently have 3 students enrolled at NACA and grateful for such a supportive school environment. Staff and teachers have gone above and beyond to support our students' academic success. A great deal of resources are available for all students and families at NACA.

They didn't have many Advanced Placement classes so there were mainly regular courses.
