Our children stand between the past and the future; our schools reflect the wisdom of yesterday and the promise of tomorrow. New City Elementary School values tradition, yet we are always changing and growing. Our goal is to develop self-directed, independent, secure and responsible children who will have a love for learning, a curiosity of the world around them and the ability to find solutions to questions, so that they can grow socially, emotionally and intellectually to their full potential. At New City Elementary School, we commit minds to inquiry, hearts to compassion and lives to the service of humankind.
