On Tuesday, Dec. 18, students from New Beginnings Family Academy took to the historic McLevy Green to sing four holiday songs for parents, teachers and others.

On Thursday, September 27th, NBFA held an annual high school expo that hosted competitive schools from in and outside of Fairfield County. Schools in attendance included St. Joseph, Lauralton Hall, Kolbe Cathedral, Notre Dame, Hopkins School, Bridgeport Military Academy, Fairchild Wheeler, and Bullard Haven technical. Throughout the night a steady wave of parents and students meandered the various booths to speak to school representatives regarding the enrollment process, timeline, available scholarships, extra curricular activities and upcoming visitation opportunities.

The Tauck Family Foundation announces that NBFA will be one of the five organizations that receives funding from the Foundation. This support will help to continue to foster the social and emotional skills that will help our students to thrive academically and in life.

Second graders brought the classroom outside, planting peas, lettuces, carrots, tomatoes, and cucumbers as part of NBFA’s commitment to teaching students the science of healthy living.

Please know that we will reschedule it for later in the year. Those who were planning to attend the Book Fair this evening are welcome to come and visit Wednesday-Friday during school hours.
