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.

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.
