I have had a great experience in NWACA. My daughter is challenged to learn and grow. When we talked about going to this school my daughter was not into it, but as she started attending she realized that was a great decision. Now, she loves the school, her friends and the opportunities she gets by showing leadership and learning. We enrolled our second daughter to start Kindergarten this coming year. Yes, it is hard to get in. It was not until the second year trying that we got our oldest daughter in. And she was the #10 in the waiting list. I kept calling everyday during summer to see if there was any change on her status until finally one day I received the call. We have been blessed. Love the school and I feel it was the best decision we made.

The truth is: The classical approach is a great learning method. The curriculum is harder than average but not rocket science. Expect at least 1 hour of homework every night and weekends, most likely 2 and you will be very involved in helping your child with all subjects and managing their schedule/test preparation. Don't believe the 30 minute homework speech that they will learn everything in class. There are times that some of the assignments are purely to maintain a heavy workload and waste time that could be spent on more important areas. There are times the staff lookup and decide we need to cram 1 month of learning into 1 week to catch up. They expect very young students (e.g. 3rd grade) to learn in class by taking notes (could you effectively learn this way in high school?). Many of the teachers are angry people, overworked, underpaid, with limited guidance on the curriculum. As a result they demand almost complete silence at all times especially at lunch. The children hardly ever have the opportunity to be a kid, so most of the children come home stressed and angry to do homework. All this and the test scores are barely higher than the best public schools, so I suppose it kind of works despite itself.

My daughter attended NWACA this year after 7 years of homeschooling. I've been so excited to see her advance and grow this year. The teachers here are amazing. They give personal attention to the kids and really take the time to get to know them and care about the kids.

Very bad lottery system, not fair at all. Tonight we attended the lottery for the school. Not recommended at all. UNLESS YOU KNOW SOMEBODY FROM THE SCHOOL, that way you will gurantee the slot
