Why us

We want their students to learn, helping them discover new abilities and a wider world. We will fulfill our mission by extending The New School's legacy as a non-traditional school and community, nimble and responsive to change, that:

I. Focuses on and engages with critical contemporary issues

II. Prioritizes humanity and culture in designing systems and environments to improve the human condition, an approach that draws on design thinking and the liberal, creative, and performing arts

III. Places collaborative, project-based learning at the center of the educational experience

IV. Takes full advantage of our school location and connectivity to global urban centers
