NCA’s 2nd and final Open House for the current school year will take place on February 16, 2012, at 7 PM. All prospective parents, students, and families are welcome to attend the event. You will have a chance to visit the classrooms and meet our teachers, students, parents, and administrators. Light snack and drinks will be served. Please RSVP in advance.
NCA is a non-denominational, independent Christian school. While NCA is open to accepting students from various religious backgrounds, all instructors are Christians committed to providing a solid Christian school experience to the students. Each week, three separate chapels are offered to elementary, middle, and high school students. Students are instructed and expected to live by biblical values and principles. Uncompromising Christian education, unparalleled community, unmatched value. That’s NCA.
Student achievement results at NCA are very high. The Stanford Test results for students in Grades 1-9 are above 85-percentile in Total Reading and Total Math. Current 11th graders average 184 on the PSAT–that’s approximately 40 points higher than the national average. Nine out of 15 seniors from the Class of 2011 gained entrance to UCLA and UC Berkeley–this class averaged 1940 on the SAT Reasoning Test. Simply put, NCA offers rigorous education to all of it students, from Grade 1 through 12.
NCA is an affordable Christian school. By comparison, NCA’s tuition is less than 1/2 or 1/3 of comparable schools in the area while its academic results are significantly higher. Also, NCA provides scholarships and financial aid to qualified students and families. Located in the heart of Koreatown, near Vermont and Wilshire, NCA is a clean and safe campus for its students. NCA’s teachers are caring and qualified instructors committed to the well-being of all of its students.
There will be a schoolwide one-day field trip to Disneyland and California Adventure on February 3rd. This event was planned as an alternative to our traditional Winter Camp. What a great opportunity for all NCA students (current and those who are transferring) and teachers to enjoy a fun-filled day away from the campus. Thank you PTA for your support in offsetting the transportation costs.
