I even don't know where to begin.This school is a waste of money.My child attended kindergarten there last year and he had a lot of catching up to do when he started 1st grade in a PUBLIC SCHOOL.So imagine the difficulties your child will have if attending a good private school the following year.My wife and i were very disappointed at this school we even consider pulling our child off the school in the middle of the school year.Poor academic program,too many soliciting from the staff without talking about too many days of school closings throughout the year.This is just a joke and a waste of money.The public schools in that area perform much better then NORCROSS CHRISTIAN ACADEMY. Be aware!
I totally agree with the last review.I regret the day i have decided to send my daughter at NCA .I had to send her to another school for kindergarten and she had difficulties in the beginning to be on track .All the staff care about is finding ways to get gifts from parents on every occasion(birthdays,Christmas,Valentines day)and of course a all week for teacher appreciation day.The school that my child attends this year is much cheaper and better academically.NCA is way too expensive for a half day school.They spend a lot of time doing art work and field trips then doing academic work.Please if you want a good quality education for your child think twice before registering at NCA.All they care about is making money .Imagine having to pay $5 for lunch that you can buy yourself for less then $2 but they know that parents will have to buy it because they don't want their kids to be left out and the NCA staff take advantage of it.
My daughters attended this school. Initially, this was a great school with many students. Recently (2012), the enrollment has dropped and teachers are sparse. There are rumors that this place might shut down. I can see that the facilitators are probably the reason for the downfall. Uncaring staff is probably a big reason for this. The curriculum has not changed since my older daughter (about 2-3 years ago) went there. Maybe a facelift of the academic program and a change in staff may be what is needed for this failing institution.
I sent my daughter here for daycare/preschool from 2007-2010 and she absolutely loved it. The teachers and administrators are wonderful and caring. They truly strive to give the kids a nurturing, educational environment full of enrichment. My daughter made so many friends and adored her teachers. I only wished that they had gone up to 5th grade! ;-)
