In the middle school, NSA was a very racist and prejudice space, not safe for a child of color or that was not white. In the high school, there is more diversity and problems like discrimination are talked about and also punished NSA has been a rollercoster of emotions and I have been loved in the high school but also hated and discriminated against in the middle school.

Very cliquey and they continuously ask for donations, art supplies, party supplies, science project supplies etc on top of the tuition that continues to rise every year. Would have all been tolerable if it didn't also put a lot of stress on our little one as far as the expectations they have for him to not only academically perform but emotionally, physically, and socially (when this was his first experience at school). It's a lot.

I love the opportunities NSA offers to its students. The atmosphere is easy to work in. Teachers are always ready to help you in any way possible. Also the academics are at a top-notch level.

This school, like any school, is what you make of it. It offers academic programs for the extremely academically gifted students and those who are regular students. My daughter moved to the school in 2nd grade from a Catholic school that had not yet taught her to read. She was behind when she starte...

It’s no secret that many reviews that paint a negative pictures come from tgose who have bad experiences. But I feel this school does to much to try to cover up what actually goes on there. From the racisim to bullying. The administration and teachers turn blind eyes. It’s also no secret that there...
