High School Parent FAQ

Will my student receive college advising?

All students have access to meet on campus with Mrs. Ellis, the College Advisor, as needed. Depending on the grade level, scholars will regularly meet or be group instructed on some aspect concerning academic success, graduation, postsecondary options, etc.

Will my scholar take any of the college-readiness exams in school?

Yes, all scholars in grades 8-12 will take the three major college-readiness exams, but not every year. All scholars in grades 6-12 take the Classical Learning Test (CLT) for their grade level each year.  Scholars in 11th & 12th grade will take part in the SAT & ACT School Testing Days. They will take the full length exam on the selected school day. 11th & 10th grade scholars will take the PSAT on the national PSAT day to potentially earn the National Merit Scholarship and determine their progress towards their score goal. 9th grade scholars will take the PreACT as well as the PSAT 8/9 exam. Scholars in grade 8 will also take the PSAT 8/9. 

Do you offer any opportunities to earn college credit?

NCA encourages scholars to take advantage of the College-Level Examination Program (CLEP). Please email for more information.
