New Vision Charter School

NVCS Founding Committee recognizes that children learn best in an environment in which they feel safe, in which their differences are respected, and in which they are held to high expectations for success. We believe that children thrive in fair, structured, and disciplined surroundings, and that such surroundings can promote the development of values and character. NVCS Founding Committee believes parents want to know their children are safe when they are in school and that they will be treated with respect. We recognize that parents expect their children to learn while in school and to emerge from their educational experience with the knowledge necessary for continued success once they leave NVCS. We encourage and expect parents to be active participants in their child’s education and welcome their input and involvement.

NVCS is committed to maximizing learning and believes that small class size is a crucial part of educational success. There are approximately 24 students in each kindergarten class 27 in grades 1-8. It is the goal of NVCS to maintain these class sizes. To further expand learning opportunities, NVCS will operate on a longer school day than other Thompson District schools. The day will begin at 8 a.m. and end at 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The founding members believe this extra time will have a significant positive impact on the total learning process.
