The New School

An amazing alternative high school. I've taught photography classes here and have attended many events. Amazing place!

I can't say enough good things about The New School. It is different yes- that is what makes it so great. My daughter is in her second year and she actually looks forward to getting up and going to school. The teachers are the heart of the school, they genuinely love the students above everything else. They put together creative curriculum that allows the kids to go to the beach for marine biology class, participate in local town meetings for climate change class, to get out into the world and learn first-hand! The students have a voice in choosing what they want to learn about. It's like a college where students are given credits and they demonstrate learning by demonstrating project work and reflecting on themselves - rather than just memorizing information/ taking tests. We are so lucky we found such an amazing learning environment for our daughter, which will encourage her to use her voice, practice critical thinking and love the community around her. Could not ask for more!

As a junior at TNS, I have been incredibly fortunate to receive such a hands on, interactive, and in-depth education. Transferring out of public school and into The New School was the best decision I have made yet!
