New Story schools are more than places where your child goes for the day to learn C our schools serve as an extension of your family.
We go the extra mile and do what is necessary to make sure your childs needs are met and that they have the necessary supports in place C to grow, learn and achieve their goals.
We are dedicated to ensuring that your child has an opportunity to grow to their fullest potential.
One way we do this is by treating your childs behavior first, so they can focus on learning new skills and creating their own new stories for the present and the future.
The best story that a child can write is one that includes returning to their home school, giving them the opportunity to write additional stories of growth and success.
We believe no two children are alike, so we teach the way your child learns C and our curriculum reflects this approach.
