WHY NEW VISTAS ?

Open book picture

First, reading is a priority. Every child, no matter the grade, has their own individual reading coach who meets with them one-on-one at least three times every week. We offer a structured, learning-based preschool where children from 3-4 years old learn to read - and learn to read well. But, our emphasis on reading proficiency doesn't end there. 

Second, imagine an individually designed Core curriculum that begins in preschool and culminates in fifth and sixth graders successfully mastering beginning algebra and even geometry. Our 1:4 student ratio allows for that kind of progress.

Third, our testing program, directed by Kristi Roher, enables us to move children ahead as soon as they have demonstrated proficiency in any course of study, all the while staying with their appropriate age group. The majority of our students test 2-6 years ahead of grade level.

Fourth, we celebrate each child's individual gifts by encouraging innovation and creativity. Our graduates becomes scholars at Ivy League schools, musicians at Juilliard, engineers at High tech companies and government leaders.
