The school is full of really dedicated teachers who seem to care for all the students, not just the ones in their class. There is a really strong community and opportunities to get to know other families. My child has flourished in this smaller, close-knit environment.

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.
