Now Enrolling!

In fall 2019, we will welcome our second freshman class to New Harmony High School!
If you are a rising freshman who is interested in visiting our campus to see how we:

  • learn through off-campus exploration
  • reinforce learning through peer-support
  • engage with career professionals through fellowships
…then, we may be a fit for you!
Contact us to set up a tour and/or Shadow Day.

Pelicans Game!

A few of our students and staff members recently received the opportunity to attend a Pelican’s game together through one of our partner organizations. They played the 76ers and fell short just one point of winning. Here are Destin and Dylan at the game! 

Upcoming Learning Opportunities

Staff, students, and families of New Harmony are involved in various organizations around the city. Continue reading below to see what some of the offered events are.

Tulane Pre-College Summer Program

Tulane Pre-College gives rising 6th through 12th graders the opportunity to spend their summer exploring the topics and issues which excite them the most. Unlike a traditional summer camp, Tulane Pre-College offers academic instruction and social growth in a uniquely fun and challenging environment. Your student will learn about the academic foundations of complex topics while building the skills they need to effectively solve problems.

Leyton

What is something you do well?

Hunting. Having patience.

What is something you have learned in the past week?

I learned how to solve cubed and cubic squared equations.

What is a misconception people have about you?

People think the only thing I like is video games.

What is the biggest dream you have for yourself that you do not often say aloud?

I want to go to Stanford University because they have one of the best medical programs.

Who has had a positive influence on your life so far and why?

My advisory … because they laugh at my jokes.

What would you do differently if you knew nobody would judge you?

I would play more video games because my mom judges me on that. I would also practice more tennis.

What do you like about New Harmony?

The end-of-quarter projects; I love doing those instead of benchmark tests.

Happy Mardi Gras, Y’all!
