North Saginaw Charter Academy is an outstanding, tuition free, school offering Full-Day K-8th Grade. I have been with the school for ten years, and find that teaching children is a wonderful opportunity and priviledge. North Saginaw Charter Academy's emphasis is on Achieving Academic Excellence, Supporting Moral Focus, Strengthening Parental Partnership, and Reinforcing Student Responsibility. Our goal is to prepare students for future success in college and life's challenges by helping them in establishing a strong academic and moral foundation.

North Saginaw Charter Academy a wonderful school!! As a parent of a third grade child, I have seen significant growth in my child in the last 3 years. My child is being challenged academically and socially each day. NSCA provides much support to kids and parents. The teachers stay in constant communication and celebrate my child's successes!! Thank you NSCA

My daughter enjoys attending NSCA. The teachers give each student individualized attention and track their learning to ensure that each student is being taught at their level. I am amazed at the things my daughter has learned and remembers.

I am super pleased with the education my daughter is receiving at N. Saginaw Charter Academy (NSCA). I don't think there is a better school out there for a free quality education. Not only is she learning the basics and beyond she is learning how important having good character is in the real world. With the moral focus program it is almost like getting a procial school education in a public FREE school. The teachers go above and beyond to help EVERY child acheive.

I've been with North Saginaw Charter Academy for about eight years now and our teachers amaze me with their dedication and constant setting of higher goals for students to reach. When I walk into a staff meeting I am constantly inspired by their ideas and passion for teaching. As a staff we are a faimly and it is our goal to add you to our family...together growing and inspiring our childrent (students) go successed in their education. Testimonies: from time to time parents have called us letting us know how much NSCA made a difference in the lives of their children. We've had calls from ther schools (SASA, Saginaw Township Schools, etc) letting us know that student transfering from NSCA score the highest or are better mannered. I am proud of this school....I love my school!

My son will be attending 1st grade, after completing Kindergarten at NSCA. I find that the teachers and staff are very supportive of the children, the parents and each other. The teachers I have come into contact with love their job. There are around 600(?) kids in the school, and the principle knows my son by his first name!! The discipline is pretty strict, which is a good thing, but for a very active and easily distracted boy, this can be a challenge. The staff care and are willing to help my son understand, which I like. The kids seem to like the school and react well to the excellerated academics. I talked to parent whose daughter goes to another Saginaw township school, their kindergartner had not started to read yet. My son was reading little books to his classmates by the end of the year!!

My son attended this school for the 1st grade for the school year of 2006-2007. Just like what the other parent said in their post. It is so true that they put the students at a disadvantage with the public schools. I pulled my son out of this school after one year and he went to the public school. He was behind the whole year. Now he is just now catching up. This school is run just like a business they want you to sell something every month. I need to put the kids first or this school is going to be in trouble!!!

We took our children out of this school this year. Their academics put them behind the public school system; particularliy in math, language arts, computers and spanish. The teachers are caring, but the way the school is run by a company instead of a regular school system left us with a lot of good talk from administraton (liked to tell us what we wanted to hear) and little substance. I am glad we made the decision to remove our children. They are now catching up to other students in the public school they currently attend. Be aware of what is being taught compared to other schools (academics).
