My daughter has attended this school for 2 years. In that time they have manage to crush all of her artistic desire. Teachers come and go. She has had 3 different dance teachers and 2 different acting teachers in the 2 years she has attended this school.

Great so far! The staff communicate frequently, unlike other schools, my child needs additional help and gets it! Looking forward to participating as a parent, lots of parent opportunites.

My daughter attended this school last year, and it was the first time she wanted to attend school, in the past she hated school, when in the environment of 2000, at New School they have 250, which is a perfect fit. I was impressed with the extra help many of her teachers provided outside of class. The registrar and secretary are wonderful, and the Dean emails and responds immediately to my questions. We love the school, I wish there was a school like htis when I was young!

This school says they are focusing in 'arts' and 'academics' when, the 'academics' are a joke, my child complains every day that she has not learned anything in math the whole semester and a half she has spent there. The classes are sadly dimmed down for the brighter kids who are forced to have class with the trouble makers and druggies. The arts are a disgrace, and a lot of times, you find your student knowing more about their 'art' than the teacher. You would think that the students here would be accepting of almost anything, when my child has been mocked, teased, and harassed for almost the entire duration of her time at NSAA, and the administration has done absolutely nothing to help. this school is utterly helpless in both area's it says it works in.
