Perfect Partnership ... Academics and Athletics Founded in 1977, National Sports Academy offers young men and women a balance of academics and athletics. The School allows students to grow and develop individually and as part of a close-knit community. The student faculty ratio is 6:1; approximately 80 students attend the academy each year. The small size and emphasis on individual attention - in and outside the classroom ensures that each NSA student receives the nurturing he or she needs to succeed. A unique college preparatory athletic academy, NSA provides students in 8th through 12th grades a safe, secure environment in which to grow, develop and excel. Our students are ready to take on the challenge of achieving their potential academically, athletically and personally. NSA provides students the opportunity to fully develop their individual athletic abilities while preparing for the demands of college. At NSA, we believe in student-centered curricula. Our programs are built around kids' with varying athletic interests and academic pursuits. Our expectation is that they will excel within the framework of their abilities. Our curricula, small classes, and teachers are supportive and flexible. NSA is home to a distinguished faculty. With a few exceptions, our classroom teachers teach, and our athletic staff coach. This way we offer students the opportunity to learn and train with adults who are excellent in their particular fields from skiing to Shakespeare. This atypical approach to boarding school education ensures that students receive a high level of instruction in the classroom, as well as in their individual sports. Daily Schedule... Academics |
