Nueva's asset is this simply: The students are taught to think, be curious and to be resourceful. If an individual is made to question, taught to find answers and encouraged to pursue knowledge... then the school has created an individual with a passion for learning and a life of interest and amazement. I loved Nueva (I am a graduate) and strongly disagree with some of the negetive comments from previous reviewers.
It's a great school for the gifted and highly motivated kids. It's a great place if your kids love school and want and know how to challenge themselves.
I am currently a student at Nueva in the 6th grade. This is my first year as part of the middle school, and I am really enjoying the experience! Just a few weeks ago I had my first dance, a large success with me and all my friends. The school also provides kids wih laptops from 6-8th grade. Before you get your laptop, you spend a whole day learning about how to treat your laptop, different applications, safety on the internet (heavily enforced on the laptop.) I myself am not a musical player, but a lot of classmates are and are involved in the various music programs at Nueva. Another thing that Nueva excels in is having guest speakers come in. last year we had several guests including a cyberspace police officer, a professional cello player, and three different authors. Nueva is an awesome school!
My child attended Nueva and is now a college graduate pursuing a higher degree. My knowledge is not current, however I would like to 'second' two concepts that appear in these reviews... first that the approach to learning is unstructured and may not benefit the student who is bright but needs consequences. Second, the music program was extraordinary. Simply incredible. Keep it up, Nueva.
