The approach to curriculum at New Frontiers Charter School is twofold: a traditional academically enhanced component and a component that provides for self development as well as character development of the student. The basis of the curriculum is as follows:
The Academic Requirements
· Grade Level Specific TEKS/TAKS Requirements
· Second Language Acquisition
· Computer Literacy
· Fine Arts Appreciation
· Physical Education
The Enrichment Component
· Character Education
· Self-Development Exploration
· Service Learning Activities
· Project-Based Learning Activities
· Parental Involvement Activities
The New Frontiers Charter School provides a learning environment that contributes to student success by encouraging parents to play an active role in decision-making, character building, and providing a home environment that encourages academic success. In turn, the school will provide a rigorous curriculum, effective and supportive teachers, and state-of-the-art materials and technology to ensure that we are on the cutting edge and that your child receives the greatest benefit. This "Partnership in Success" will ensure a well-rounded and successful student who is a lifelong learner and productive citizen.

New Frontiers Charter School is an
open enrollment charter Elementary and Middle School operated by a
dedicated staff of individuals who care to make a difference in the
education of your children. We currently serve kindergarten through 8th
grade. We welcome you to peek into the New Frontiers Family.
Charter
Schools are independent public schools, designed and operated by
educators, parents, community leaders, and others. They are sponsored
by designated local or state educational organizations who monitor
their quality and integrity, but allow them to operate freed from the
traditional bureaucratic and regulatory red tape that hog-ties public
schools. Freed from such micro-management, charter schools design and
deliver programs tailored to educational excellence and community
needs. Because they are schools of choice, they are held to the highest
level of accountability-parent's demands.
