The student culture can be very supportive and close knit but the emphasis on grades and competitiveness between students often got in the way of the so called "sisterhood". I know a girl who broke into the guidance office because she wanted to see who would receive the Harvard book award junior year, and when she saw it wasn't her she had a tantrum. Overall, I've had a positive experience, but it was difficult to find my people.

I'm a 2013 grad and just went to my 10th reunion. NDA prepared me well and gave me an excellent foundation for college and beyond. It taught me to strive for excellence in academics and my work. NDA's global education and teachers taught me to think critically, to ask questions, and think out of the box. Most important NDA taught me the importance of using my talents to be a good person - making a positive difference in the world.
