Students studying tomato plants and making notes

This may not look like any other school you’ve ever visited – certainly not like any other school in Chattanooga. The fact is, the way we learn works. Our students are bright, eager to learn, and genuinely excited to be in school.

Your child
isn't average


Neither is a St. Nicholas education.

Our curriculum meets all the national standards. Our students, however, tend to exceed them. That’s because we don’t believe in settling for average. Our teachers structure the curriculum to allow each student to achieve his or her own personal best. The way St. Nicholas students learn at every level lays a lasting foundation for knowledge, self-motivation, independent thinking, and self-expression. That could explain why, in six decades, we’ve yet to meet an average individual.
