Urban Views Weekly profiles the unique learning environment at Nubian Village Academy (2022 Sledd Street):

Collaboration between students, parents and the community is integral, and volunteerism is required of parents and students. “Our keys to students’ success are our parents,” Aseeya says. “The teachers and the community all work together to assure the success of the children. Our parents have to volunteer a minimum of five hours a month in the school. And the students volunteer in the community. We’ve participated in every disaster relief that affected the city from Hurricane Katrina, Isabel and Hurricane Gaston. We also participate in the Ukrop’s 10K every year and the SunTrust marathon where we pass out water for the runners. It’s mandatory that they serve about 55 hours during the school year.”
