Student Experience
Hear what students, parents, and alumni have to say about their experience at NOVA Academy.
I came to NOVA Academy because a lot of my family has graduated from here. I am happy that I get to experience all that NOVA has to offer, like their family and college classes.
I appreciate the college courses we are given and the guidance we get from staff. I enjoy that we are ONE BIG FAMILY.
NOVA Academy is a safe place for kids. Free of drugs and violence. Teachers and staff are very professional with everyone. We are glad to have our son completing high school at NOVA.
I enjoy attending NOVA Academy because of the small campus, the student climate, and the college classes they have to offer as part of their dual enrollment through College of the Desert and UCI.
Family has been my favorite experience at NOVA Academy. I get to spend time every day with the classmates I am going to graduate with. We get to grow and learn together
NOVA is the best charter high school in the Valley. They have the most interactive teachers and staff. They are most attentive to parents and students. Their Parent University is second to none.
I enjoy attending NOVA Academy because it is very family oriented. I appreciate all the attention and the opportunity to attend college courses for free.
