My daughter finished her Freshman year at NDP and is entering as a Sophomore next year. After 5 years in Scottsdale's public schools it was a wonderful change! The kids are so much more respectful, the classrooms are under control, discipline is enforced. She has blossomed and made a lot of friends.

Someone needs to reveal the truth about NDP. I attended NDP lastyear. The teachers are mostly new, amateurs. I had a few horrendous teachers, one who would often cuss, and had no control of the kids in the class. Eventually he gave up on teaching and sat on ESPN.com all day. Another teacher I had would

Often she would play quiet ball and when she wanted everyone to stop, they simply played 'monkey in the middle' with her and didn't listen. Teachers simply have no control at this school. The counseling is truly embarrassing. My counselor ignored me for weeks until my parents stepped in. The Principal emerges from his cave once every year for about a day or two. All idiots are accepted if they have a 12,000$ check. Basically the school is horrible. Read less

My son is a Junior at NDP and has had a terrific experience. The curriculum is both challenging and demanding. This is the first time in 11 years of his educational experience that I have received phone calls from his teachers just to report what a great job he's doing. I find the educational staff

I just graduated from NDP this year. All four years of my high school experience were spent at this great school. I am saddened by the negative reviews of the school based solely on the rules and supposedly 'unfriendly' front office people. My time spent at NDP begs to differ. Neither accusation
... Read more is true. There are very strict rules for NDP students. However, the students of NDP have a voice through their Student Council. During my junior year, the Student Council negotiated with the School Administration to allow us to untuck our shirts. Sadly, a lot of students tried to stretch this new freedom. There was a massive increase in gum fines and disiplinary infractions. I believe that this caused the School Administration to force us to tuck in our shirts senior year. I think that students can have more freedom at NDP if they can be responsible. Read less

Tuition is too expensive. Does not give enough chances for success in the arts. Not run professionally. Students are disrespectful and rude. I am taking my daughter out this year because the other students are so unbearable, I cannot watch her come home crying because of how rude some kids can be.

Tuition is steep, but I love the fact that NDP random drug tests. Gives kids the excuse so they can avoid peer pressure from other kids. The dicipline is also tough, which I am grateful for. I'd like to see more emphasis on how students can successfully navigate through their relationships with peers

Not just after there is trouble, but educate kids on what their boundaries should be with tolerating bullling, passive-aggressive girls, etc. Read less

My son attends NDP and if we had to do it over again, we wouldn't. We have children also in public high school and we so no big differences other than 12,000/yr and smaller class sizes. They do not hold the kids accountable on homework like they said in orientation freshman year and they are obsessed

The teachers are no better than anywhere else; math department is terrible. First impression as you enter the office is a grumpy older woman who has sent several families I know away not wanting to go any further-pretty sad! They also CONSTANTLY are asking for $ in one way or the other. Read less
