Students at New Outlook Academy have the opportunity to earn merits for going above and beyond. Teachers and Counselors reward students for positive performance in all aspects of their day.
At the end of each week, students can “cash in” their earnings for fun recreational items

GROWING LOCAL
Staff and students at New Outlook worked together to grow an abundance of fresh vegetables in the annual garden.
Our young ladies have been extremely proud to share cucumbers, zucchini, cherry tomatoes and several types of peppers with our staff and community residents.
Everyone was appreciative of the delicious homegrown veggies for summer meals.
Pictured below are Sabrina M. (Allegheny Co.), and Ariana L. ( Berks Co.) with the New Outlook Academy some of the fresh-picked items.
Celebrating summertime and the beautiful weather, the young ladies of New Outlook Academy enjoyed several outdoor recreational activities available on campus. Kite flying, corn hole, volleyball and refreshing water ice were among the favorites.
