I have three children that have attended New World from Kindergarten and my two oldest have graduated from New World and have moved onto college. My youngest is still attending New World as a Middle School student. In all our years at New World, it has been nothing but a positive, loving experience. My children have made life-long friendships with their classmates and even their teachers. I am so happy I was able to find my children such a great school to help shape their academic and social lives to become the successful young adults they are now.

I am VERY CONCERNED for my child in this school!!!!!!Look at the test scores from grade 4 up to grade 8 BELOW the state average.The school fired the sp ed director along with the paraprofessionals, so my child is not getting the services the state of AZ pays for. I'll be calling the AZED.The principal has been ducking ( as in not returning) my calls when I wanted to share my concerns.The school needs to replace the principal /administration and restructure from the top down.The school enrollment has been on the downslide according to my child's teacher...oh I wonder why.A parent of an upper middle school student shared with me, the principal "fired" an 8th grade math teacher whom the students loved and learned. Her child will not be returning after Christmas.The turnover of teachers seems to be a given each year.There are other schools in the area so choose wisely.

I love love love this school ! It has a family environment and small class sizes. Parents are welcome to volunteer whenever they want so they know what is going on with their child.

At 1st we weren't sure if we would come back to the school due to our commute. ( we drive 45 min to drop him off, 45 min back home. Then we do it all over again to pick him up. With a total of 3 hours + a day with at least 100 dollars a month in gas ) Well, we will be staring our 4th year here at this wonderful school. We are so thankful to of found this school. The school has found a way to make learning challenging and fun for all students. The small class sizes and family like atmosphere can't be duplicated. If you're looking for a school that expects the students to their best, have personal accountability, to help others, be kind in their words and actions, and are looking for staff that always have students best interest in mind and be a SAFE environment, This is the school you've been waiting for..

I sent all 5 of my children through New World and have been pleased with the results. They received a good education in a good environment. Many thanks to the teachers and staff for their hard work and for caring so much about the students.Bill Williams

This school has zero tolerance to bad behavior. It provides a safe learning environment that my son has thrived at since we brought him here. We wish we would have started him here since kindergarten instead of the public school system.

I am so grateful to have this school available to my daughter. It has been a wonderful experience with the administration and the teaching staff. The classroom sizes (students) are small enough that all the kids get the attention they need and any issues are resolved quickly. I would definitely recommend this school to any parent looking for a great education in a safe and friendly environment.

Because of the small school environment, my son who is very quiet has functioned exceedingly well. He is comfortable inside or outside of the classroom. His teachers are personable and truly care about his performance. I thank them all from my heart.

Having my daughter at this school has been one of the best decisions I have made. The class size's are small so kids don't tend to fall thru the cracks. Its a friendly and fun learning environment.

Such a welcoming school! There is never a day where a teacher or staff member won't welcome you with a friendly greeting and warm smile. The environment is so inviting and it is really amazing how involved everyone is in trying to make your 12 school years a success. It is truly amazing how this little school can make such a big impact on your life!

My Son started going to New World last year in 2nd grade. He wasnt thriving at the public school he was at. Now he LOVES his school and gets the attention he needs because of smaller class size and caring teachers!!

I switched my daughter to this school from another well known online school. This is her last year of high school and though most of the time she is working from home virtually, I wanted her to be able to get the one on one, face to face help from her teachers when she needed it. This is the only online school in Arizona that also offers this choice. When she is struggling with something I have the option of brining her to the school to help help from a certified teacher. She is happy and so am I!

To work for a school where students, parents, teachers, and the entire staff work together is truly a blessing. Our school staff has always dedicated themselves to the students. We welcome anyone who is willing to work with us as a TEAM!
