Mission & Goals
 The mission of the New Foundations Charter School is to provide students with the academic, social, and emotional foundations and skills necessary to become high achieving, socially competent stewards of their communities.  The founders of the New Foundations Charter school will ensure a commitment to lifelong learning and achievement of all our students by creating an atmosphere of caring that pervades every aspect of school life, and promotes attachment to and responsibility for all members of our school community.

The staff works closely together to create an integrated curriculum, real-world learning experiences, and an inclusive, cooperative learning environment. NFCS is community-centered. We focus on bringing the community into the classroom, and encourage students to use their knowledge for community development. We believe in servicing the entire student, and work towards not only academic achievement, but social and emotional growth as well. We believe that learning does not stop at the end of the school day or during the summer months. Furthermore, NFCS has integrated itself as a neighborhood resource, and provides programs and enrichment for the students, youth, and adults of the community.
