Went here after CSOS—still racist, still toxic. Teachers ignored kids saying slurs, even allowed a textbook with the N-word in it. Rich kids got special treatment, especially if their parents donated. Bible classes pushed "100% or nothing" faith, which messed me up for years. Girls punished harsher than boys, especially athletes. If you're not rich and white, don't bother. I'd never send a child here.

I enjoyed my time at NCA. It is a growing school and the campus is slowing getting better. It is big enough to have a activities that fit everyone.

NCA is a Bible- based school upholding Christian values which are woven into the culture of the students and faculty. I sent my Kindergartener with absolute joy, knowing she would have the best experience. She has been challenged educationally in the most positive way and continues to thrive in the atmosphere at NCA in her 1st grade year.

The teachers love their students so much and the administration works very hard to make it a safe place where students can thr...

We have been at NCA for 7 years and absolutely LOVE IT! It is the right fit for our family. From academic rigor to spiritual growth it has been great. NCA is a family of people who pour into students. Parents are expected to be involved, as they should be, with the academic and spiritual growth of t...

Bullying appears to be the norm at all grade levels. I saw it many times and never saw it addressed even though the teachers were right there. Talking to administration will get you nowhere. Don't expect to be on the 'in crowd'. There are definitely cliques. There are some good teachers, but some te...

After having our kids at New Covenant for three years we saw more and more red flags coming up. Our one kid was way above grade level and for three years learned absolutely nothing. They apparently couldn't and didn't do anything for her. Our family saw public shaming in the classroom, teachers maki...
