I am the new Director of New Beginnings Academy. Our goal is to create a learning environment of Collaboration for Kids. We believe that every child can learn and each child learns in their own way. We individualize. We have a strong core curriculum for student success and we have enhanced math, reading, p.e., technology, library, and art to develop the whole chlid. We encourage parent involvement and we invite you and your children to visit our school and join our family.

I am very dissappointed as a parent, and grandmother. I really don't think my child will be attending here next year. Praying for the School. Parents you really need to get up there to see what's going on, or come to the P.T.O. Meeting!!!! God Bless

At first I thought NBA wa a great school but now this is my childs second and last year there. The classes have mixed grades like 1st & 2nd. I think it is a bad idea. Teachers are overwhelmed. Too many students not enough teachers. Students are not learning as much as they should.

My child has been with new beginnings academy since it began later my daughter began to attend as well. I am impressed and pleased with the curriculum and academic encouragement at the school. One of my fears when my kids began school was that they would not be challenged. New beginnings has managed to continually challenge my kids and I love the parental input and involvement when it comes to deciding their course of work. I also approve of them encouraging character, community and morals as well as academics. They also encourage personal self esteem for the children. The only thing I would change about the school would be to let it go higher than 5th grade.

The personal attention each child receives at New Beginnings Academy, coupled with the encouragement and expectation of parental involvement, creates an environment where children will excel. The communication and cooperation between the staff and parents creates a strong sense of community, and makes the educational experience a very personal one to each family. The principal is without question the most professional and best I've seen in a school yet. My daughter was lucky enough to have attended from the first year and the academic advantages of New Beginning's approach, particularly in the early stages of a child's education, is evident in my daughter's study habits and comprehension level. I believe attending New Beginnings for her formative years gave her an advantage that will last the rest of her life. It's a shame the school only goes to 5th grade and that every other school isn't like this one.
