Our Mission
"BECAUSE WE HAVE THE WHOLE WORLD IN OUR HANDS!" |
Nigritian Academy Preparatory School is a California based coeducational private day school offering grades K-12 and supplemental programs for early childhood and adult learners.

Guiding children from youthful wonder to advanced learning, Nigritian Academy's mission is to provide quality, individualized education to our students that will honor their ancestral heritage and protect their cultural legacy.
We strive to foster meaningful learning by keeping our students engaged. Using inquiry, action and reflection, our students gain deeper understanding and develop attitudes that will lead to successful lives. Every student in our community is nurtured, cared for, taught, known, held accountable, and loved. Our primary tenets of kindness, cooperation, and respect are the guiding principles through which we prepare our students to achieve and excel in life.
Nigritian Academy takes reading, writing and arithmetic to a new level of understanding by adhering to the 'SWARLT' principles:

Writing

Acting

Reading

Listening
the action or skill of being engaged by taking notice, being alert and internalizing unwritten information
Thinking
