NBFA Testimonials
"I have been a member of the NBFA Board for several years. I am constantly amazed at the dedication of the administration, teachers, and staff. To a person, they understand the school’s mission and the need for quality progressive education. NBFA focuses on educating the whole child and his/her social and emotional needs. This focus is lacking in most school systems and thus the need for NBFA. For those families with students under NBFA’s care, this school is an invaluable resource and so deserving of the community’s support."

"New Beginnings Family Academy serves families in Bridgeport by helping their children get a great education. Small class size, researched-based reading and math programs with lots of small group and individualized academic supports help students achieve their best. The emotionally responsive practice helps students learn to regulate emotions to be more available for learning."

"I was in the first graduating class of NBFA, and I am now a firefighter for the city of Bridgeport. NBFA instilled characteristics in me that lead me to the position I am today. Characteristics like being proud, being honest and striving to challenge myself to be the best I can be."
