At NCCL School, children learn by asking questions, exploring ideas, and building real understanding through experience.
Our small, multi-age classrooms encourage collaboration, creativity, and confidence as students grow academically and socially.
Since 1971, NCCL School has been a place where children are known, supported, and inspired to become thoughtful, engaged learners.
At NCCL School, students don't just memorize information, they investigate, build, create, and collaborate.
In our classrooms you might find students:
designing bridges inspired by Inca engineering
building exosystems during science investigations
traveling the world through cultural studies
presenting ideas during community meetings
learning through field trips and outdoor exploration
Every project encourages curiousity, problem-solving, and real understanding.
With small class sizes and multi-age classrooms, students develop strong relationships with both teachers and peers.
Older students mentor younger ones.
Younger students grow into leadership roles.
This structure fosters confidence, empathy, and independence.
At NCCL, relationships are at the heart of everything we do.
Teachers truly know their students: how they learn, what excites them, and where they need support.
Families are active partners in our community, helping create a warm and welcoming environment where children feel safe to take intellectual risks and discover who they are.
The best way to understand our school is to see it in action. Schedule a Tour!
We would love to show you our classrooms, introduce you to teachers and students, and share what makes NCCL such a special place to learn.
NCCL School is committed to enrolling students of diverse racial and cultural backgrounds. We have established the Ann Brown Scholarship Fund, in honor of our founder, to provide financial assistance to families with diverse backgrounds. Donate here!
