My Daughter Found Her Voice

"I believe in and have witnessed NOVA’s ability to create an inclusive and safe environment for children of color...It was at NOVA that my daughter found her voice within a community."

As a member of the Olympia Community I donate to NOVA Middle School because I believe in and have witnessed NOVA’s ability to create an inclusive and safe environment for children of color.  My daughter is a NOVA alum and as a military family, the difficulty for our family has always been the uprooting of life that occurs to so many military families. It was at NOVA that my daughter found her voice within a community.

NOVA creates young enthusiastic scholars that learn to embrace their differences and those differences are showcased in education, art, sports, and the social and emotional development. These incredible young people go out and make a difference in the lives of others after attending NOVA Middle School.

Student Stories

Learning is a Journey and a Gift

"When I was in 5th grade, school was already pretty disappointing. Pointless work, and school was losing its meaning for me. Sixth grade at NOVA turned that upside down, and suddenly school was fun again and I couldn’t wait to go to NOVA every day."

Even on a Snow Day
