Nwsa is the greatest art school I could have ever attended!! This school is very accepting (black, gay, Hispanic, Muslim, transgender, disabled, etc) something very rare in Miami schools!! The teachers are amazing and professional and the school provides students with what they need to be successful!! Many of the students doing great things and attending amazing colleges. And the college-like environment does motivate you and you take responsibility This school doesn''t need a sports team to be good, there is a reason this place ranks nationally and among the highest in the state this place 100% deserves to be named best art school in Florida!! Miss this place so much !!
