Nansemond-Suffolk Academy

At Nansemond-Suffolk Academy, our motto, Honor Above All, is the cornerstone of life on and off our campus. We take it into our daily pursuits with an enthusiasm that is not easily understood until one comes to know our community - up close and personal.

For forty-seven years, our students have engaged with their teachers and fellow students in the pursuit of a rich independent school education. Our faculty has graced their calling by bringing to our classrooms not only a commitment to teach, but to strive for excellence in the classroom. Nansemond-Suffolk Academy is a place where every student has that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to lay a foundation for life-long learning. At Nansemond-Suffolk Academy, we are a close-knit community that is committed to providing a superior independent school experience in an atmosphere of mutual respect and trust.

The trusting environment enables our students to take chances in the intimacy of our classrooms; to develop artistic talent and aesthetic sensitivity in our choir and on our stages; and to exercise good sportsmanship and enjoy the camaraderie of being a valued member of one of our interscholastic athletic teams.
