At New City School, students learn more than the contents of a textbook. They are taught to become confident, caring, thoughtful individuals who value the multiple perspectives of their peers. A New City education is grounded in rigorous academics, achieved through joyful, experiential learning.
Our students are empathetic, appreciative of diversity, and carry a deep awareness of themselves. This awareness encourages students to develop leadership that pushes them to succeed beyond school walls. New City graduates are accepted into the top secondary schools in the area where they not only excel academically, but become exemplary citizens, advocates, and the leaders of their communities.
New City School uses the theory of multiple intelligences as a tool to capitalize on each student's individual strengths to create genuine learning experiences that are both meaningful and relevant. New City is truly a unique place that you must experience in person!
