GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My overall experience at Natchez Early College Academy was bitter sweet. The best part about it was being able to attend a community college and earn an Associate's Degree as well as getting my High School Diploma. The worst part about it was there was very many rushed moments with events and meetings. Also, it was mostly stressful at times. However, I know that this experience will be worth it.

I love Natchez Early College Academy. It helped me a lot with college. I was able to receive 29 college hours before attending Alcorn State University. That helped me to able to start my main classes for my major and get ahead instead of taking the classes you have to begin college with. NECA helped me to learn how to manage to be in college before actually leaving for college. I'm thankful for those experiences because I was more prepared and less nervous.

It the most uplifting school in Mississippi. it has benefited me well through my high school term and i'm grateful I get the chance to get an associated degree from Copiah Linclon community college before my high school diploma. My education was taken seriously and the teacher did everything to make sure we learn to our fullest.It has been a wonderful time and the journey was worth it.
