The staff at Northpointe Academy is outstanding. The staff goes beyond 3 p.m. everday. They come in early, spend their own money for classroom and student needs. Our teachers work with our parents to make sure our students can reach their full potential. Students who attend this school are exposed to compassion, love, concern, excellent teaching and creative lessons. The leadership is in concert with the entire staff to make sure that teaching and learning is at its highest level. Northpointe Academy truly believes that all children can learn.
This is my third year as a teacher at Northpointe Academy. I have seen Northpointe grow over these years and with the combined help of our positive administration, dedicated staff, and hard working students, this is the best year Northpointe has experienced. Children are improving academically and MEAP scores are rising. Northpointe has proudly made AYP for this school year! Our administration has made many positive changes this year for the good of our children and the school as an entirety. The school is filled with dedicated and passionate teachers who are there because they care about the children in the classrooms and the school as a whole. Teachers go above and beyond their call of duty to ensure every child is successful in what they do. The passion the staff shows on a daily basis is the foundation of the school. Passion, which holds us together and keeps us going.

Great School, teachers are great , students are excellent . Grades stay in high marks.
This is a school for students who want to excel and succeed in life. We encourage our students to achieve their personal best and expand their horizons. The staff is dedicated and diverse, the specials teachers are better than in most schools, and the new administration is actively implementing improvements on a weekly basis. This is a radically different school as of this year. NPA has rid itself of ineffective management and is now independent. We are continuing to improve and expand by leaps and bounds, and next year is bringing plenty of exciting additions and improvements.
Northpointe has seen many improvements this year. We have a wonderful staff that gives their time and energy to make the school a quality place for students to succeed. We have a great principal that cares about the school and wonderful teachers that connect with their students and consistently work hard to make NPA a great place to learn. Northpointe has great after school programs; academic tutoring, cheerleading, basketball, sister to sister, brother to brother, girl scouts, and latchkey. I truly enjoy working at Northpointe, and get inspired daily from working with our creative and hard working students.
