Let Me Assist
My name is David Brinkman, Admissions Counselor for Northwest Academy. Often parents feel like they are struggling alone and without options -- they are so surprised to talk to me and find that they are not alone and that they have options. If your child needs a structured environment, substance abuse treatment, healthy peer relationships, individualized academics, and small classroom sizes, Northwest Academy may be just the place. I've been working with struggling families in situations not unlike your own and I'm here to help -- you can reach me toll-free 24 hours a day at 877. 882.0980.

Northwest Academy welcomes students from all over the United States and elsewhere in the world and does not discriminate on the basis of religion, race, creed, national origin, ethnic background, sexual orientation or cultural differences. We study other cultures and respect heritages different from our own, teaching understanding, tolerance and acceptance. International students require a student visa (on US Immigration and Naturalization Service Form I-20) before commencing academic instruction.
