Faculty and administration at NFA is amazing. I really appreciate how everyone from the Head of School down knows my kids and is constantly working to make it a special experience.

The Academy has a special place in my heart due to all of the opportunities it gave me. I remember my freshman year and the nervousness but that all quickly changed once I got into the classroom with my teachers. I can not think of a bad experience with any of my teachers. They pushed me and when needed supported me. I was beyond prepared for success in college due to my four years at NFA with the incredile teachers.

I messaged the teachers and all of them answered. We attended to the welcome 9th grade event before school start so we can see...

NFA is one of the best schools in connecticut and it deserves a lot more than a 5/10 rating. They give you so many options for AP courses and they have a large variety of courses for people with different interests. They have art, computer, 8+ languages, photography, design etc. My son found it real...
