At NCA, our core mission is to train up young men and women in the knowledge and love of Christ, preparing them for higher education and life beyond our walls. We recognize that paying for a private education is a long term investment. Thankfully, we have seen many different positive returns on that investment, including financial returns. The first 17 graduates of Naperville Christian Academy have received a combined $1,061,255 in academic scholarships from colleges and universities.
Classical Education has been proven to prepare students for college, academically, socially, and spiritually, exceptionally well. The Association of Classical Christian Schools has invested great effort to quantify statistically the distinction in college readiness and ongoing life success of classically trained students as compared with their peers brought up in other educational systems.

The average ACT score for graduates of NCA is 31.5 (on a 36 point scale). While we are proud of this success, we are much more proud of the moral guidance and discipleship our students have obtained which will remain a part of them all their lives.
