We moved to New Lothrop this year. AT the start of the year we were excited about our son attending this school. Unfortunately very quickly we felt like we did not belong. Often we felt uncomfortable around staff and were looked by staff when someone they knew was in the office. Our child was left at school and they were unsure why he did not make it on the bus, mind you he was only 6. We were very unhappy with this school and their policies. We switched to Flushing schools mid semester and could not be happier.

We moved to New Lothrop almost six years ago. New Lothrop thrives with sports, field trips, etc., where other schools have almost eliminated everything. I work a lot and a single mother. I am not in any clicks..., just nice to everyone. My kids didn't have any trouble making friends or blending in. Sports are a little competitive, but it's not about winning, but playing your best and giving it your all. I have seen and dealt with other schools...this one's awesome. Great education, no crime, and everyone tries hard to make it great.

It is a great small community school. IF you are from NL, or choose to enter the tiny circle which is made up of the support staff and principal. The Principal is one to "blow smoke" and tell you ANYTHING to pacify you. Then when you leave...he forgets all about your issue. He is a good curriculum director, good w/ the students. But, does not follow through on ANYTHING unless it is to his benefit. The support staff covers for each other when something goes wrong. And, if you have a issue you need to bring to the attention of Principal of Super EVERYONE will eventually know about it. It's the way it is in small towns. If you can deal w/ all the drama your child will definately get a good education here. Great college prep, if you can survive it!
