New Enterprise Academy is a Great Private School in O'Fallon. Visit NEAschool.com for more details.

The difference is that from 40 months and up, NEA works with the individual learning styles and capabilities of even the yougest kids. These kids are ready to learn, not just be babysat. The Pre-K program at NEA uses many proven methods for developing early language, math and reasoning kids in these youngsters so by the time they get to Kindergarten or 1st grade they are well ahead of the curve and have much more confidence. This enables them to really love the learning process for life, because they know relative success from a very young age. These kids are not pushed at NEA, just attended to properly. They love it!

There is an open house March 27 in the evening and March 28th from 9-noon. Check it out! Among other things, they have very low student to teacher ratios, an outstanding certified faculty, very current integrated curriculum, teach Spanish to every kid (even the 40-month old youngsters who soak it up like sponges) and regular assessment testing which shows these kids rank in the very high national percentiles among private school kids. Quite an accomplishment.

My younger kids go there and they are excelling. My oldest Daughter is staright-A's in all honors classes at Fulton and is very well-adjusted after having attended NEA.

NEA has the highest percentage of kids in O'Fallon District 90's Academically Talented (AT) program of any other school in the district, public or private. I would put the teachers, curriculum and academic achievement scores up against other O'Fallon school in a heartbeat.
