Attending ANA has transformed our son's life. The school delivers on its commitment to developing students' academic potential, leadership skills, and sportsmanship. Superb teachers and small classes are complemented by a hands on leadership team. The academic and residence life staffs work closely together to help each student develop his strengths and coping strategies to improve performance in areas in which the student is weak. We highly recommend the school. Estamos encantados con este colegio. Si estan pensando en mandar a su hijo a un internado en los EE.UU., ANA es fantastico.

Army and Navy is a school that your son can gain knowledge and values, which are hard to come by in public school. The staff really care for the boys and this shows on a daily basis. With the small class room size, the teachers can teach each student, not just the class as a whole. Army and Navy Academy has helped turn my boy into a man who can go out into the world and be productive member of society, and college ready.

My son came to ANA as a 9th grade student/athlete, day student. His transition has been "Great"! From the teachers, to the RLO, to the coaches, everyone has helped. The school does a very good job keeping parents in the "know" on on their child is doing in every area. We are very pleased with our decision, as we had 2 other school options, and know for sure we made the right choice. I can't say enough about the school, and the cafeteria is also a good place to eat per my son, which means I don't have to cook every night. I look forward to the coming years at Army & Navy Academy.

Our son is entering his third year at ANA and I highly recommend the school for young men. The small size of the school allows boys to take risks and try new things. Our son was encouraged to join the marching band even though he'd never played an instrument before. Now he is looking to continue with marching band in college. No one falls through the cracks at ANA. They learn self-discipline, accountability, leadership and character development on top of a strong academic program. In today's world, kids seem to be floating through life, spending more time on how to beat the system as opposed to making a difference. ANA speaks to making a difference.

ANA has helped my son thrive! Our son is very bright and capable, but prior to attending ANA, he struggled with participation, focus and procrastination which had a negative impact on his grades. At ANA he found a sense of responsibility, leadership and community, which helped motivate him to improve his performance academically. Additional the structured environment has helped him with developing study skills, a critical skill that will contribute to his academic success in college. We believe he has achieved these benefits from the sense of community and pride fostered and encouraged at ANA. Since our 4 years at ANA, we ve benefited from the support of the school s administration, his teachers, residential life officers, and extra curricular activities, as they have taken an active role in supporting our son s growth and accomplishments. We are would recommend ANA to any parent of seeking a unique, structured educational environment, that leverages the foundations of military leadership to teach young men how to achieve their future life goals.

The Army Navy Academy has offered our son a tremendous opportunity for an excellent education and preparation for college (college prep.). The single gender, all boys, educational concept along with small class size give our son individual instruction and attention in his course work. The faculty and leadership staff is passionate about the boys' success and their enthusiasm is infectious. The JROTC program has motivated our son to take personal pride in his studies, personal growth and values. Focus on honor, attention to detail, and leadership skills. Our son has excelled academically from a B-C student to an Honor Roll student. The campus facilities located in the North San Diego County, in Southern California are simply put, amazing, with an oceanfront location in the heart of Carlsbad. We couldn't be more pleased with the academic and personal growth experiences our son is afforded by the Army Navy Academy.

The Army and Navy Academy has offered my son a plentitude of opportunities, and the willingness to succeed. He has learned there are no limits to his ability to success and achievment. The Academy offers the Cadets so many opportunities to flourish that my son would have to put more effort into being irresponsible and avoid responsibilities, rather than simply accomplishing them. My child being so reserved, gained self-esteem, made best friends for life, and achieved his dream GPA. There is no limit to success here, Definitley two thumbs up for the Army and Navy Academy.

Army and Navy Academy is a great school. It has challenging academics strong principals and excellent leadership, which are found in most good schools. The thing that makes Army and Navy Academy special is that the staff members really do care about the Cadets. They understand that young men are going to make mistakes. They are patient, understanding and supportative which gives the Cadets the confidence to take on challengting test without fear. It is literally a practice field for life the kids.
