Northdale Christian Academy participates in Florida scholarship programs like FTC, FES-EO, and FES-UA, offering financial support for tuition. Families can explore options through Step Up for Students or contact us for more.
The FES-UA scholarship is for students with health-related or special educational needs. While NCA is not a special needs school, students with special needs are considered for enrollment on a case by case basis. Depending on the scholarship received, most (or all) of the tuition for a student will be covered by the scholarship.
The FES-EO and FTC scholarships were formerly income based but are now universal scholarships for Florida residents. The FES-UA scholarship is for students with health-related or special educational needs. While NCA is not a special needs school, students with special needs are considered for enrollment on a case by case basis. Depending on the scholarship received, most of the tuition for a student will be covered by the scholarship. You can learn more about our tuition and fee structure by visiting our Admissions page.

My son will be going into the 6th grade and will be his fourth year at Northdale Christian Academy. We are very pleased to have our son in a smaller school with very dedicated teachers. The 2020 school year was very challenging with the distance learning. The teachers at NCA really stepped up to the challenge and went above and beyond to educate our son. Thank You to the staff at NCA, it is greatly appreciated!
This school has completely transformed the way my kids view going to school. I love the small class sizes and the way the teachers and faculty really get to know and love the kids and their families. We feel at home and loved at NCA!
After interviewing a few schools, our family choose Northdale Christian Academy, hands down. Mr. Mattes and staff made us feel like we would be part of a family and that the kid's spiritual and educational needs were the number 1 priority. The experience so far has been amazing! The kids love all of the teachers and every day come home with enthusiasm for school and great stories from the day. This has been a great decision on our part.
Our daughter has been attending NLS for 3 years now and she absolutely loves it. The classes are small and the teachers and principal are very caring. We love the fact that our daughter is learning in a Christian environment. We most definitely recommend this school to anyone in the Tampa Bay area looking for grades K-8th!
An absolute blessing to have such a wonderful school. The faculty and staff are very kind, caring people who strive to know and understand each child, and family, and what makes them unique. Small class sizes allow for individual attention and a wonderful learning experience. This school is invaluable in helping teach and reinforce Christ-centered beliefs, actions and attitudes.
