ANCS is the kind of place you send your kids to if you looking for the feel of a family, strong academics, and exposure a commitment to health through PE and Lunch program. It is worth every minute we struggle to afford a private school tuition. It is too good to be true that such a school exists that takes into account that our child is smart but needs nurturing, what a difference. I understand why those who leave perhaps for financial reasons do all they can do to come back.
I have two students at ANCS and have seen them grow intellectually and socially. The staff and leadership have been incredible. They have joined with the parents to form a family that has a common goal to enrich, and educate young minds as well as abuild character. If we only had a nickname- GO ANCS!!!!
Innovative, intown, diverse - the kids love it!
Atlanta New Century School is a great school because the teachers are caring, loving, and educators with creative teaching styles. Our school is small but it is full of love and both parents and kids know each other. The curriculum is excellent and the learning environment is relaxing but challenging. Small classes make the students comfortable and the teachers are able to focus on each child individually. Atlanta New Century School or ANCS as we call it is a school filled with teachers giving 100% to ensure that each child is achieving to their highest level.
The teachers are fantastic and the parent community is strong. My child is getting a great education that is tailored to his learning style. The kids benefit from many extras--music, art,PE, and spanish on a regular schedule PLUS many field trips.
We have been at the school for four years and it has been a magical experience. Despite facing the same challenges many other corporations are facing, it remains a top notch education. Our kids regularly test 1 - 2 grades above grade level on the Stanford 10 tests, but thats actually not as important to me. They are taught to question everything, assess the situation, with music, Spanish, Art, PE, it is a little school that CAN and DOES. Parent participation is awesome and the teachers are excellent.
ANCS provides a challening, yet nurturing environment for the students. The teachers really care about the kids and take time for them. The structure has been great for my son. I am amazed at the reading and math skills he has learned at such an early age. The parents are active and committed to the school.
Atlanta New Century School has been the perfect environment for my son. The teachers are awesome. They realize that each child is an individual and while they teach the class in its entirety they also realize the unique gifts of each child. The teachers are in tune with the students as a whole person. Academics are stressed and taught in unique ways. The teachers, staff, and parents all work together to ensure each and every child is exposed to a well rounded environment. Mind and Body is addressed at Atlanta New Century via wholesome lunches, an active environment - to address the children who need movement- and quiet time-for the children who need less movement - which also allows the active children to calm down. It's a hard balance, but ANCS does it well.
I love Atlanta New Century School. I am a new parent and work and live in the downtown Atlanta area. It is convenient and the quality of education is by far beyond the city standards for children ages 3-12. The school offers daily Spanish along with alternating schedules for Music, Art and Technology. Ms. Gibbs, Atlanta, GA
My daughter attended ANCS for several years, and is now at a high performing public school. I can tell you that ANCS, more than adequately prepared her. In the 2nd grade, she is reading (and comprehending) well beyond her grade level. While I don t think math will be her first love, she effectively understands the context of multiplication and division. If it were not for the administrative mess that ANCS had previously and the uncertainty of its future, we would still be there. That said, ANCS was phenomenal academically, the teachers were amazing, and the family environment was an added benefit. With the enhanced administrative infrastructure being put in place, I m convinced it will rise as a premier educational establishment in this community.
