I am a parent and my daughter goes to New Hope Academy currently. We love the school. My daughter was failing and now her GPA is 3.5.

Clearly, these reviews are from the staff at NHA. This school cares more about the revenue and not the well being of your child. I would advise parents to request for the education backgrounds and experience levels of the teachers that will be spending time with your child on a daily basis.

If you want a place where your child is respected, nurtured and inspired, this is it. You will find an assortment of every type of child here. But that is what makes New Hope special. It puts kids from all walks of life together, much like the real world, in an atmosphere that appears more like an office than an institution, which makes the reason for learning that much more real. The music department is wonderful... I couldn't imagine my daughter who has played the violin for 6 years going back to clanging cymbals at the local public school.

New Hope lives up to its name. It truly individualizes education based on your child's needs. It has 'state of the art' ...everything. More importantly, it has a committed staff, who truly invest themselves in your child's growth. Our son still struggles, but has begun to flourish there, He has especially enjoyed chess and yoga, but there are opportunities to act or play music, just to name a few possibilities.

i achually attend nha. and i love it. i cant tell you how much i have learned, since i have been there- and its only been a couple months. I feel as if the 2 years that i was in public school were just wasted becuase i didnt learn anything. At nha i feel like all the teachers are your friend, there alwasy there for you, and you can tell how loyal they are. this is a great school, and for anyone that is struggling in public school, and might need a little extra attention in some areas, nha is the right place for you. i love it here!

My HS daughter goes here and loves it. lots of 1 on 1 attention. Kids range from ADD to very gifted and needing more than what public school can give. They match the child's ability with the work load. Lots of performing arts classes. Create your own curriculum (with in the state of PA's laws) A school social worker is there to work with kids on socialization issues. you, as a parent are seen as part of your child's school experience. as such are expected to attend a meeting each month PTA style with all the other parents which most parents participate in. very approachable staff they look out for each child's needs. small class room (2 students to each teacher.)

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
