Profile



What is this school known for? One of New Hope Academy's greatest strengths is the fact that because we are a smaller school, we are able to individualize the educational program in order to better meet the unique nature, goals, and needs of each student. This is especially true at New Hope Academy International High School, a small private international high school in metropolitan Washington, D.C. (in northern Prince George's County, MD) dedicated to academic excellence, personal attention, and character-building in a college prep high school setting. Our English Immersion program for international students is very individualized to support students with their proficiency in English and mastering the high school course work.


MISSION STATEMENT:

New Hope Academy is dedicated to academic excellence and character education. It supports parents to raise moral children and promotes intercultural harmony. Founded on principles that are universal to people of all faiths, New Hope recognizes that the belief in the Parenthood of God, leads to the brotherhood of humanity.


New Hope Academy is committed to making school a meaningful and enriching experience for all students. To best support our students' high school experience we have several very innovative programs. For example, from fifth grade on, students are tested and placed in math classes that allow them to move at an accelerated, regular, or slower pace, depending on their abilities and math foundation. Also, to prepare for a challenging college preparatory high school program, eighth graders are taught by the high school teachers, each with degrees in their specialized curriculum fields, and classes are designed with a similar structure and format as high school.
