Dear Newcomer Academy Families,

We are honored that you have selected our school for your child's continued academic and English Language development.  We have a busy semester ahead of us as we continue to prepare our students to reach their dreams.  Please be sure to contact us if you have any questions or need support.

Our Journey to Success

At Newcomer Academy, the goals of our Journey to Success Defenses are:

-Provide every student with an opportunity to present their personal and academic growth in the JtS program.

-Ensure each student receives feedback from multiple sources.

-Identify areas of student achievement and growth to inform next steps.

-Celebrate student accomplishments and reinforce skills like public speaking, self-reflection, and goal setting.

If your student is in 8th or 12th grade this year, ask them how they are preparing for the Journey to Success Defense!
