New World High School

DBN 11X513  •  insideschools.org  •  School Finder  •  2017 School Performance Dashboard
Overview Paragraph

Our school focuses on the language acquisition needs of all students in all subjects. We engage all students in acquiring and developing the skills necessary for success by integrating English as a New Language (ENL) and technology into all content areas of instruction. Our classes are small and our academic program is challenging. We expect our students to transition out of the ENL program and graduate in four years. Students share their native cultures and languages and learn to become active citizens in their new country and use the English language. Our staff works closely with students to ensure progress throughout the high school years and into higher education and the world of work.
