All three of my kids attended NCA from PK-8 grade. We loved the teachers and staff at NCA. They were very caring, enthusiastic and engaging with my children. My kids still talk fondly of their days at NCA. They still have many friendships that started at NCA. I strongly feel the core values they learned and were instilled in them have made them the successful individuals they are today.

We truly love NCA. Why? The small class sizes, the focus on the whole child, the very reasonable tuition and the way the teachers really take the time to get to know and work with our child. We had the opportunity to leave NCA for a while, to explore what we were thought would be greener pastures in Chicago schools -- only to realize, NCA is really the best place to be. We are thrilled to have our son here. An added bonus: the academics even align with our family's focus on social justice and celebrating the true diversity present within Chicago and our world.

The teachers and administrative staff care deeply about the school and students. My child has flourished in this environment. There is a strong community and lots of opportunities to get to know other families.

The First years were great but since the new Principal took over the school has gone downhill fast. I should have removed my kid earlier but wanted all my kids to finish at the same school. Big mistake. The school has suffered greatly with the new people. So many families are leaving. This school is...
