North Texas Leadership Academy

We can not say enough about our experience with NTLA. Our 4th grader was struggling at our local Public school and despite being in the gifted program there, she was needing a more individualized program. We found North Texas Leadership Academy and have seen a 360 degree change in our daughter. She loves the school, the project based curriculum challenges her and the teachers and peers are very caring and compassionate. We love the fact they change classes and are have different educators...so our daughter is exposed to new teachers who encourage and engage her in a variety of projects. And we have found the administration to be understanding and supportive of our child and family. We love this school and wish we would have known about them from day one.

My daughter did Pre-K and first grade in public school. She was really struggling with reading and I used to lose my patience when we would sit every evening practicing. She was already so tired from school and all that homework and it was very stressful. We are at NTLA since 3 Months and her reading improved a lot, our evenings are more relaxed and she starts to find joy in her books because she knows she is doing much better! The teacher/student ratio is great because she has so much 1:1 time with her teachers. They also do so many great Projects and have field trips to important places randomly. This school is like a big Family and we love it.

I''m thankful this school is available for my son. The school incorporates Project Based Learning across the curriculum so all learning is relevant and applied. I like this model because my son is collaborating and learning to think critically vs. just memorizing facts for a test. The students showcase their work in some way at the end of each unit and parents are always invited. Parent involvement is encouraged and high. I also like the focus on leadership and service. Class sizes are small, 12 max/teacher, and individualized lessons are created to challenge my son where he's at each day. That's a major selling point for me. And he loves going to school.

One visit is all you will need to understand the depth and determination that the entire staff puts forth in crafting an engaging and challenging place of learning. The sense of community begins and extends through the Head of School, Mrs Thompson. We finally found a place that strives to bring out the best in all of their students.

My daughter is in her 2nd year at NTLA and absolutely loves the school. Each and every day she is actively engaged in her learning. The teachers are fantastic--nurturing, highly qualified, insightful, and creative. This school is top notch!
