Nancy Campbell Academy

Centrally located in downtown Stratford. Caring safe environment. Teachers concerned with the welfare of their students. Principal has a world Vision that provides the students with the skills necessary to be successful in their future endeavours both academically and socially.

Very strong sense of community with very accommodating and flexible academic programs. But the teaching quality is very poor. Most of the teachers are not certified with the Ontario College of Teachers. Some don't even have a university degree.

Thank you guys so much for helping me graduate and move onto an amazing university, I really couldn't have done it without the amazing administration, and the virtues of Love and Unity that the school so heavily incorporates in its everyday routine. The foundation of consultation that the school is built upon could not be possible without the amazing staff that are available at the school to help every student, including myself. They were able to make insightful choices for me that I was incapable of, and that has taught me so much. The guidance at this school is truly phenomenal. NCA is the best school I have ever been in the presence of. I'm so grateful for this experience that I had the opportunity of receivingand that I hope many others will get the opportunity to share. They have amazing teachers who can teach your child so much both intellectually and spiritually. If you want to to give your child the best high school experience possible, then, by all means, contact the school for an interview.

i knew this school wasn’t for me when administration made over 20 girls cry February 2018. i knew it wasn’t for me when the principal expressed intentional transphobia by repeatedly misgendering a classmate. nancy campbell considers itself a social justice school, which in some aspects it is but one staggering fact remains: if you aren’t cisgender, you aren’t safe. thanks for my OSSD guys but i really could’ve done without the incompetent administration and the love and unity lies. a foundation built on consultation means nothing when student issues are shot down by pigheaded staff who refuse to admit that they are, in fact, able to make poor judgement calls. anyone who considers NCA the best possible high school experience is someone with familial ties in an institution based on nepotism and back door deals. as someone who witnessed these injustices time and time again, i’ve concluded that you are welcome to this school if you have a) the funds to not only pay tuition but cover “scholarships” to other students b) follow devout religious practices that the school imposes on all its students or c) hold power in your last name. as a first year student pursuing a business degree, it’s no surprise i see the connection between running the school and running a business. one of the first success factors? maintaining employee equipment. but did you know 4 teachers have left over the past academic year? that’s something like half the staff. ensuring quality is another one of these factors, so explain why there are teachers without b ED allowed to teach you or your children? private school esteems itself on being of higher quality than public but even public school requires that teachers have the bare minimum training to actually qualify themselves. all in all, nca is a waste of money and time. if you would like a horrible education, you will be able to find the worst ranking public schools within the district. that vs nancy campbell? at least you’d have 25,000 more in your pocket. but if someone has swayed you into believing there’s even an ounce of redemption or you fall into one of the three categories above, then by all means — contact the school for an interview :)

Shout out to this school for hiring Jarrett Spriet twice despite all the allegations of abuse against him
