Learning takes flight at NASA! Our vibrant community school fosters exploration and enrichment for every student.
Mission & Vision
The mission of N.E.W. Academy of Science and Arts in partnership with families and the community is to create a child-centered, multilingual environment where students are able to work cooperatively, become self-directed, think critically, develop self-esteem and self-assurance, and have respect for cultural diversity.
NASA has three specific performance objectives:
1. To promote student progress in academic achievement, with an emphasis on the arts and sciences.
2. To foster ethical principles and values related to social interactions and community involvement.
3. To provide assessment-based instruction that is developmentally appropriate, meeting students where they are and taking them even further.
School Vision:
N.E.W. Academy of Science and Arts is a model for innovative child centered learning and instruction that embrace the community as a foundation to teach and create lifelong learners and confident global leaders for the 21st century through an emphasis in the arts and sciences.
The vision of N.E.W. Academy of Science and Arts is to create a child centered environment where students will be able to work cooperatively, become self-directed, think critically, develop self-esteem and selfassurance and have respect for cultural diversity. The vision also includes a creative, safe, healthy environment for children. A place that honors family values and provides a safe environment where children are allowed to fail without fear, and view fear as another opportunity for learning; and gives children exposure to multiple situations in a variety of environments in order that they acquire confidence, self-respect and respect for others.
Honoring the homes, culture, language, and community of our students, NASA envisions a child-centered environment where students feel safe to explore their identities, curriculum, and social context. With a focus on science and the arts, we foster creativity and innovation tailored to their social-emotional and academic readiness. Our graduates will possess the skills and perspectives essential for thriving in a diverse, interconnected world.
