We LOVE NLA. There is a deep sense of community among families. We are grateful for not just what they learn inside the classroom, but the that the philosophy plays out in how the school functions. The staff and teachers are quick to know, love, and intentionally walk with your child.

We've had a great experience at New Life Academy. We've been attending for 15 years now and our 3 kids have genuinely loved attending NLA. Our youngest never wants to leave because he likes spending time with his friends.
