nawa academy - experiential education
Nawa Academy is a coed, independent boarding school located in California. As a leader in experiential education, we serve students in both middle school and high school, utilizing a hands-on learning approach. We are fully accredited and offer a challenging college preparatory curriculum to students seeking alternative approaches to learning. Imagine a school committed to identifying and strengthening your diverse learning styles. Imagine a campus culture based on mutual respect. Imagine a school with many options. A school where you can focus on developing your snowboarding skills, enjoy the many campus activities, trips and events, or visit cultures in countries like Ecuador, Egypt, Mexico, Peru, China and the Philippines while conducting your academic studies. Imagine teachers who are creative and fun, a school with small classes, and learning through doing rather than being confined to overcrowded classrooms in a school focused on notes and lectures. For the past 20 years, these are the dreams that have been realized by our students.

We are a California non-traditional boarding school that prepares students with diverse learning needs to meet the challenges and complexities of the future. Through an experiential approach to learning, a creative and caring faculty and a nurturing environment, we seek to instill an excitement for lifelong learning.

We encourage efforts to confront challenges, which fuel a growing realization of greater capability.

We teach and reflect the values of moral character, physical wellness, and social responsibility by fostering open communication between faculty and students. Nawa Academy openly embraces the qualities of individuality, responsibility, diversity, human dignity and respect for others.

By living in an atmosphere based on patience, dialogue, and intellectual inquiry, our students develop the skills to face the future successfully.
