I have had some great teachers, and the opportunity to take a challenging course load. I've also been a part of several great clubs and the opportunity to serve in several leadership roles.

The teacher experience was a hit or miss. I loved Mr. C and Mrs. McKnelly. Some teachers did not teach at all and I found it to really impact my grades and my interest in the class. NDA has a good social environment because of how small it is. I recommend it if you want to teach yourself all of the material for 4 years. Oh yeah, and the administration is the worst thing about this school. NDA was fine my freshman and sophomore year, but when the new president came, the whole school went down. All they care about is marketing and creating ads for the school rather than caring about the students who actually go there.

Teachers are either a hit or miss--some are fantastic, some are terrible. Same goes for class content. The tech/indoor facilities in the high school are lacking, but the campus is gorgeous and makes for a great learning space. Overall I've had a decent experience here and met some great people.

NDA is an amazing school. The teachers, administration and students are what make the school a community where my children feel as though they belong and can thrive. My children are excited to go to school everyday. I highly recommend this school for your child.

I am an NDA Upper School alumna, a current employee, and a parent of current students. I have never been disappointed with this school, and being back here feels like being at home. My young children now attend (PK3 and K), and I couldn't recommend this school more! It was a great school for me as a...
