SCHOOL

ASP Registration is OPEN!

NCA manages its own after-school program which will allow the instruction in virtue and character that our students receive during the school day to continue seamlessly into the hours after school. Please see the NCA After School Care webpage for more information and registration details.

Every family will be assigned a carline tag that will be distributed at the Open House on August 4. NCA-issued carline tags MUST be visible when you enter the carline for pick-up. Students will not be released to an adult who does not have the appropriate carline tag. If carpooling with other families, the driver must display a carline tag for each family. For the safety of our students, photocopies or pictures will not be accepted. The original carline tag printed by NCA must be displayed.

Fall Athletics are already underway, but it’s not too late to get involved!

To get more information about Volleyball, Cross Country, and Softball, and information about our other athletic offerings, please visit the Athletics page here.

For any questions, email ghawkins@nwclassical.org

The beginning of the school year is the best time to send in clinic forms and drop off medications. For a full list of forms and how to know which is right for your student, click here.

Please feel free to contact the clinic with any questions through health@nwclassical.org.

Families wishing to receive consideration for financial assistance for lunches, uniforms, school supplies, field trips, activities, and after-school programs should visit the financial assistance page on the NCA website. Please note that the process for Free and Reduced Lunch (FRL) and Financial Aid are separate processes and require applications for each. Please read through all of the information provided and complete all steps in order to be approved.

You may find more information along with the paperwork HERE, and paper copies are also available in the front office from 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Monday - Thursday during summer hours.

The sign-ups for the NCA music programs are coming soon.

In addition to the Lower and Upper School choirs and string orchestras, we are proud to offer a brass ensemble, woodwind ensemble, and jazz band!  

Please pay attention to the days and times when signing up, as most programs may differ slightly from last year. 

For any questions, email finearts@nwclassical.org.

Infinite Campus is currently transitioning from the 2025-2026 to the 2026-2027 school year. During this time, there are many changes happening behind the scenes. To avoid confusion, Infinite Campus access is limited now through July 31 for all families. New families will receive information on accessing student schedules, grades, attendance records, and more at a later time. Stay tuned!

Families may use these instructions to set up an account with Chef Advantage, view menus, and begin ordering lunches. Our school code is NCA44. Only new NCA families will need to create an account this year; returning families will use the same account as last year.  When ordering lunches for the first few days of school, choose any teacher assignment and then edit the teacher choice in your profile after teacher assignments are given at Open House. Families may order for as many or as few days as they prefer. 

FAST FACTS ABOUT LUNCH AT NCA

1. School lunch costs $4.83.

2. Students are expected to pack a lunch from home (as well as something to drink) or PRE-ORDER online from Chef Advantage. Lunch cannot be purchased in the cafeteria. 

3. Parents will be required to add each child to the family account in order to purchase lunches for multiple children.

4. Pre-ordered lunches can be purchased online by month or week or day.  (No same-day orders are available.)  

5. All lunch orders MUST be placed prior to 9:00 am the day before.

6. Students can bring a water bottle to school. It needs to be labeled with the student's first and last name. All lost and unlabeled water bottles are thrown away at the end of each month. 

7. NCA will not allow Uber Eats, Door Dash, or other food delivery service meals to be delivered to students this year. 

8. Chef Advantage does not include peanuts in any of its meals and the cafeteria will have designated peanut-free zones. Students may bring lunch items that include peanuts unless the teacher instructs otherwise.

The Free and Reduced Lunch program (FRL) is available for qualifying families. For more information regarding financial assistance for school lunches, please click HERE. If you have questions or would like to request FRL, please contact Mrs. Bermann, Cafeteria Manager.

NCA will continue to use ParentSquare for the 2026-2027 school year for school-wide communications, teacher newsletters, and announcements for student and parent groups, including volunteer opportunities through the PVA “Level 2” group. ParentSquare will also continue to house our community directory. For returning families, please take a few minutes to update your photo and your settings for the current year. Please remember that you must change your contact information to "visible" in order to be included in the directory.

New families, you have received an email inviting you to join ParentSquare. ParentSquare has a website that is best for some features and a phone app that puts communications at your fingertips. Please take the time to learn how to navigate both the website and the phone app.

While ParentSquare is a wonderful tool for mass communications and one-way announcements, we ask that you contact teachers through their NCA email accounts rather than the Direct Message feature in ParentSquare. Feel free to continue to utilize direct messages for parent-to-parent communications.

Please download the ParentSquare App HERE to ensure you do not miss important information from your child’s teacher or from NCA. 

Visit these FAQs for questions about setting up your account. 

We are thrilled to kick off another excellent school year of parent involvement through Northwest Classical Academy's Parent Volunteer Association!

Please save the date for the Volunteer Kick Off Event open to all NCA parents and Grandparents on Friday, August 21.

Level 2 Training
Each year, every parent volunteer must be cleared as a “Level 2” volunteer in order to volunteer in any capacity at NCA. Level 2 status from last school year will not carry forward. The process will take 15-20 min and involves watching two videos and filling out a Google form about what you learned. We will offer the Level 2 training at the end of the kick off event.

Volunteer Opportunities Before School

As we approach the start of school, there are several ways to get involved. Please take a look at the Back to School volunteer opportunities. Students are welcome to volunteer alongside a parent or guardian.

Click here to sign up and volunteer.

On the first day of school, each student will have all of the necessary supplies and organizational materials on their desk and ready to be utilized. Parents will purchase supplies from the school rather than at retail stores. Parents will receive invoices for the supplies via ParentSquare in the first two weeks of school. No action is needed at this time. Invoices for families receiving financial aid will be adjusted.

Grades K-4 School Supply Fee: $60

Grades 5-6 School Supply Fee: $65

Grade 7-10 School Supply Fee: $75

NCA does not provide criteria for student backpacks/book bags apart from the following: 

1. Bags should be full-size (large enough to fit a folder or binder)

2. Bags should not have wheels

3. Bags should be able to fit easily into a student's locker or cubby.

4. Choice in print or design should reflect and uphold the student's daily pledge to learn the true, do the good, and love the beautiful.

Special Education

Mrs. Constance Weeks will serve as the Director of Student Services at Northwest Classical Academy. Throughout the school year, she should be contacted with any questions or concerns related to Special Education and other support services. She can be reached via email at cweeks@nwclasical.org.

School Counseling

Mrs. Jennifer Brown will continue as the Lower School Counselor. (jbrown@nwclassical.org)

High School Students
High School students made their course selections for electives over the summer. If any student missed the window to request an elective, the Registrar will assign them to their elective classes based on course availability and scheduling logistics. If you have any questions about this process, please email registrar@nwclassical.org. Please note that questions about your child’s individual schedule will not be shared until Open House.

Student Parking information can be found here

All Upper School
Relevant student groups will receive separate communications in the coming weeks regarding math placements, calculator requirements, and more. Students will receive their schedules at Open House on August 5.

The course catalog lists current course offerings organized by discipline. As the school continues to add grades for the following three years, the Course Catalog will expand, especially in Fine Arts and other electives.
