We have been a Nouvel family for several years. Nouvel provides a wonderful education and curriculum that includes many special activities and faith-based learning. The children and staff at Nouvel are kind, caring, and the community feels like a family. Through the recent struggles with Covid, the team was fantastic. During the last year, our family also faced the unfortunate situation of losing our home in the flood. The staff at Nouvel was so wonderful to work with and understanding of our situation. We love Nouvel and will continue to send our children there through their preschool - 12th grade years.

We choose Nouvel for the small class size, the catholic education and family focus. The teachers have fewer students in their classrooms which enables them to spend more time one on one. Parents and grandparents are always welcome and encouraged to volunteer within the school. Yes, it does come at a price, but we don't regret the money we have spent for our children to receive a superior education.

The atmosphere at Nouvel is incomparable to other schools- it is beyond a school and more of a family. The entire staff is incredible filled with compassion and knowledge for the students. The students grasp more than an education but also a strong ethical and religious understanding that takes them far beyond the classroom.
