Nova is a high-quality environment for college preparation and academic rigor. The teachers actively engagingly challenge students and students regularly make notable achievements. However, there can be an air of ego present within some students, often resulting in a notable dynamic that can cause some to feel somewhat inadequate or less than in comparison to their higher-scoring peers.

I've had a decent time. One challenge I see at the school as a whole is space for various extracurriculars- track, theatre, robotics- which all have very strong teams but lack of space.

It worked for me. I love the small classes, willingness to work hard, I loved the encouragement and the close friendships/mentorships with teachers. I will say that towards the end of highschool (junior/senior year) I procrastinated and lost motivation for my schoolwork- but I regret this because I believe that a lot of the work we were doing made us more rounded human beings. You may not know why you're reading Dante, but a couple years later you'll realize you're glad you did.

The lower school is wonderful, however, the upper school needs to reexamine what it's true mission should be in today's educational climate.

My son graduated several years ago and is set to graduate college this spring and my daughter is in the middle school. Nova has been a fantastic experience for both of them. The school's academic program has challenged both of my children; allowing them to take advance coursework (for example my son...

If you have a gifted and talented child or a child with special needs, Saint Paul public schools have great resources available. If you have an average student and concerned that they will get lost in a large school environment, invest in private school education (some have scholarship programs to h...
