Provide students access to an academically rigorous, blended high school/college curriculum.
NOVA Academy will inspire, educate, and prepare all students to be successful in college, career, and in life.
Since 2005, NOVA Academy Early College High School in Santa Ana, CA, has provided a rigorous yet nurturing learning environment, giving students the unique opportunity to earn college credits while completing high school. Founded on the belief that education opens a door to hope and the development of strong leaders, NOVA Academy offers an individualized approach to helping youth succeed. Our WASC-accredited programs feature academic and personal support designed to equip students for a seamless transition to college. NOVA Academy was named a California Distinguished School in 2019 and has been recognized as a Best High School by U.S. News & World Report annually since 2015. A tuition-free public charter school, NOVA Academy instills a culture of college readiness while sustaining nearly a 100% graduation rate each year.
Seeing through the lens of compassion gives hope, builds bridges, and develops a community of caring individuals.
The help NOVA Academy gave me was excellent, especially with my son who has autism. They met with me periodically and were able to develop plans that helped my son be successful after high school.
NOVA Academy equipped me with the opportunities and resources crucial for a smoother transition from high school to college. I am grateful to NOVA, crediting them to this day, for shaping the student I've become.
My experience here has been amazing as the atmosphere is always lively. I got the chance to start my own Chess Club within the campus while actively participating in other clubs.
One of the things I like most about NOVA is that the teachers really take care of knowing what the students' goals are and helping them achieve them, and if they have any kind of problems, they give them the necessary support.
I was welcomed into NOVA Academy with open arms and I just hope that after I graduate and am in college, the school never changes. This school and all the friends and teachers I’ve met here will always be in my heart, memories, and mind.
The Early College program helped me discover my career interest at an early age through dual enrollment. I now attend UCI where I currently major in Biological Sciences, debt-free!
The relationships I've built with the teachers and classmates have been unforgettable. I am proudly a part of the Mariachi program. I expected to learn guitar after high school, but NOVA introduced an amazing music program and helped us learn it.
Our senior will graduate with an associate degree in addition to her high school diploma. NOVA Academy truly offers the best of both worlds - a private-level education alongside the affordability of a public institution.
I love this school, especially the support from my teachers and friends. Everyone is so helpful and supportive and this school provides lots of opportunities for education and learning.
I have made many friends, learned so much, and made great memories. The environment is just right; it is a good size campus which allows for participating in sports and clubs, making the experience absolutely wonderful.
