Nampa Classical Academy (NCA) offers Idaho's only K-12 classical, liberal arts education available through a public charter school. NCA opened in the fall of 2009, and is currently accepting lottery entries for grades K-10th for the 2010-11 school year. NCA will add one consecutive grade each year until the school offers all 12 grades.

NCA is a classical, liberal arts, public Academy, fashioned after the Hillsdale Academy Educational Model, centered around the Greco/Roman Trivium, using time-tested Classical Curriculum. This historical model features a traditional, values-centered curriculum that stresses subject mastery and critical analysis. The curriculum is strong in phonics, classical literature (Great Books), grammar, composition, mathematics, "modern" sciences, history, geography, and rhetorical analysis and writing (The Well-Trained Mind).

The ultimate goal of NCA's classical, liberal arts education is to enable Students to "Fulfill their Destinies", equipping them to live out their individual purposes in life with "Virtue and Wisdom". NCA believes that an understanding of how to live life with virtue and wisdom is what is vital to contributing to the overall good of both American and Global societies. The rigors and academic standards of education at Nampa Classical Academy are both difficult and stringent, but its results and rewards are unparalleled outside of elite private Academies or well designed and executed home-school programs. NCA offers the best standards and excellence of home-schooling values and private institution practices through the corporate power of public education.


Non-Discrimination: Prospective students will be given the opportunity to enroll regardless of race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion, sex, social or economic status, or special needs as required by federal state and local laws.
