All three of our kids attend BCCA, and we couldn't be happier. Our oldest started in kindergarten…read moreand is now in fifth grade. Our youngest just entered kindergarten after two wonderful years in the preschool program. The curriculum is more advanced than our experience at CMS, and our kids are encouraged to challenge themselves while being fully supported. They actually enjoy going to school, which says a lot. When our son needed help with reading, he received in-school and after-school tutoring at no cost. Teachers are communicative, with weekly check-ins and extra updates. Every teacher we've had has gone above and beyond. The admin team is engaged and present at drop off and pick up daily. BCCA goes beyond academics with events that build confidence, character, and community. We're so grateful to be part of this diverse, supportive school. Highly recommend.

(As a gay student, some homophobia and transphobia coming from certain teachers, not severe but very accepting other than that.)

When I arrived I was greeted by very friendly teachers and staff that welcomed me with open arms and directed me to Mrs. Phillips one of the head administrator. She gave me a tour of the academy then escorted to a state of the art auditorium to prepare for my presentation. The Tech team was hands on with the equipment and slides I needed for my presentation and the students were delightful and very attentive. I found NSCA to be a great school with lots of potential. There were a few takeaways from my visit at Northside Christian Academy: the school immaculately clean and well maintained, the students were well behaved and the faculty and staff were kind, warm and inviting. The campus is huge and they offer lots of options for students to be successful well beyond graduation but also life.

We could not wear flip-flops, and on Fridays when we had casual day, we had to adhere to very strict clothing policies and if we violated them, our parents would be called and they would have to bring a change of clothes for us. If you're looking for a Christian-based school in which your children will be taught Christian principles, this is the ideal place for you. We had Bible study every day as a class and we attend a chapel once a week. I did feel that NCA had prepared me adequately for my next level of education. AP classes were offered for more advanced students. Administration, staff, and teachers always addressed and handled issues To the best of their ability.

This review is specific to THE DISCOVERY LOUNGE AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM which is the…read morebefore/afterschool program directed by Cynthia Smith and is housed at QCSS but not affiliated with the school. I wish that QCSS would get rid of this program and find a better one. This is a warning to all parents, DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO THETHE DISCOVERY LOUNGE BEFORE/AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM. https://www.thediscoveryloungease.com/ The Director, Cynthia, charged me today (9/23/22) for the TDL  program, after stating that 9/16/22 would be the last time I would be charged, being that I removed my child from the program on 9/2/22 and he has not attended since. I removed my Kindergartener from the program after only about 2 and a half weeks because she contacted me several times for MINOR instances that should have been managed by the "highly trained" staff at the program. Cynthia contacted me with an attitude and a loud tone of voice and even made a personal attack on me verbally. I am a single, working mom and this has caused extreme stress, anxiety and frustration for me. I have to be the mother and the father for my child and I do discipline him and work with him as much as I can at home. I do my best to teach him proper behavior but he is a 5 year old at the end of the day. I truly feel that he was being ostracized and labeled in this program. It's like she was trying to get him out of the program instead of working with him. Some people do not need to work with kids. Cynthia's lack of professionalism has brought me nothing but distress that I am STILL dealing with it since I got charged AGAIN. I cannot afford to be charged for a program that I am not involved in. She has shown ZERO accountability for overcharging me. No empathy at all. I would recommend that people STAY AWAY from this program unless you want to deal with a constant struggle, being contacted at work every day for the smallest things, being personally judged and attacked. Hopefully no other parents have to deal with what I have been through.
