Students are tested and placed in math according to their level and follow a rigorous curriculum often with tutorial-based instruction. New Hope High School engages students in a hands-on involvement with science. Students don t just study science they DO science. Concepts taught in history and social sciences are similar to survey courses at a college level with expectations of writing projects and tests made age appropriate. Electives are available in fine arts, music, life skills, foreign language, physical education and computer instruction.
Character is the first criteria for success at New Hope and weighs heavily in admitting students.
We seek students who are service oriented, who demonstrate civic and moral virtue, and who can set an exemplary standard as roles models in the school. Students with serious behavioral and discipline problems will not be given consideration. Admission requirements Students will be chosen to enter our program based on testing in core subjects, a written essay, previous report cards and standardized testing, questionnaires, recommendations from former teachers and school principals and a personal interview with the Admissions Team. A minimum of a C average is required for admission. New Hope provides students with a clear atmosphere where they can spend their energies focused on learning.
