The New School is a caring community of parents, kids, and staff. It's wonderfully diverse in every sense. Kids who are just learning English get lots of extra attention, and within a year or two are reading and writing as well as their native English-speaking peers. It's really remarkable. And everyone is encouraged above all to be safe, kind, and respectful. That is the foundation of the school community, and it's embraced by all.

The New School at South Shore maintains a very low student to teacher ratio, with funding from the New School Foundation helping to add quality programs. A multi-cultural, ethnically diverse atmosphere celebrates the mind, body, and spirit of every child. Principal Gary Tubbs supports his staff in continuing education and works with the parent group to focus energy on educating the whole child.
