North Avondale

Excellent. I love the Principal, Roger Lewis. The teachers and staff seem to really care about the students. Very few negative interactions there. Very strong parental interaction and support for student activities. Very strong parent-lead organizations: Foundation, Fathers' Group, PTA, LSDMC.

Terrible rating based on unprofessionalism. Me and my wife paid our application fee, went on a tour and loved what we experienced. We never received a call and NEVER had any of our calls returned. We where very disappointed in our treatment and recommend going to TNSM.

The New School has been one of the best choices of our life! Both our boys love going there and have learned so much throughout their time at TNSM, not only academically, but also socially. They learned how to LOVE learning, how to be curious, how to experience Nature and connect it to science or poetry or whatever the child’s interest is. All teachers focus on each child and their unique passions and nurture them with Montessori learning material so that learning is fun! Jeff, the current director, is the heart of the school! He is always fully engaged and his door is always open. He knows every child and their families. He is happy and friendly, yet firm implementing rules to keep everyone safe. All teachers and staff are also phenomenal, friendly, happy, very knowledgeable and also very supportive! We had an amazing support during a few months where our family went through a tough time. The school is like a big family. Next school year is our last year at TNSM and we are very sad to leave the happy, loving family behind, but we feel we will always be part of the community. Thank you to everyone that has helped TNSM becoming such an amazing place! As is said before, best choice we - as parents - have made!
