New Frontiers Charter School prides itself in offering individualized instruction. One way we do this is through the Kindergarten- 2nd grade reading intervention program. The program assists students that need a little extra help and support with reading. The reading intervention teacher works closely with the students' homeroom teacher and develops lessons that review what is being taught in the classroom. Students participate in these lessons with the benefits of working in a small group setting. Students that receive intervention are pulled out of their homeroom class every other day for approximately 30 minutes. During this time, students perform interactive activities that help build on what they are learning in the classroom. In order for a student to receive intervention, their classroom teacher may refer them. They may also be placed in reading intervention if they are performing below grade level in reading. Parents also have the opportunity to request reading intervention if they feel that their child is in need of extra assistance.
Parents, please feel free to stop by the reading room if you have any questions about reading intervention or simply want to pick up some reading ideas and strategies that you can practice at home with your little reader!!!!

New Frontiers Art department is designed to increase student awareness of the different kinds of art. It gives students a wide range of experiences and helps them to appreciate the art around them. Most importantly, it lets them know that there is no wrong way to do art. Some of the art lessons involve painting, drawing, pasting, sculpting, coloring and folding. The art curriculum gives the students the opportunity to express and observe art.
I have been teaching art at New Frontiers for six years and I look forward to another year with the creative students at New Frontiers!

The English as a Second Language Program at New Frontiers Charter School works with all students identified as English Language Learners.
The objective of the program is to insure that our ELLs acquire proficiency in the English language at the same time that they are receiving content-based instruction. We coordinate with all general education classroom teachers and are in constant dialogue regarding student well-being and academic performance.
We recommend appropriate teaching strategies as well as facilitate small group instruction based on individual student needs and language proficiencies.
