Educational opportunities that inspire achievement and success.
Many young women arrive at New Outlook Academy performing below their age-appropriate grade level. To accelerate their academic development and prepare them to earn their high school diploma, we offer strong individual attention, computer-enhanced learning and year-round supplemental educational and remedial services.
The intentional structure and productive routines they establish while living at New Outlook also contribute greatly to their success in rehabilitation.
We believe that getting an education—and building upon it—is critical to a young woman’s development into a productive member of society. So we create an environment that maximizes her potential for meaningful learning.

Our job is to catch them doing something right.”
