I have been an employee of NSM for 9 years now. I was fortunate enough to have my son attend this school for 6 years previous to my employment. The experiences that he had here were phenomenal. NSM prepared him for his next levels of education very well. He is now a 4.0 student at a public high school. I was impressed with his daily stories of all the new materials that he used to learn lessons. This program is terrific. Thanks to SMFCSD for supporting the program and even now expanding it to middle school.

Three of our grandchildren have attended this school. The school provided them with a wonderful well rounded education. They are now thriving in middle and high school. This school is a well kept secret!
