A Message from the Founders

Through the generations it has been said that it takes a village to raise a child. We have taken the wisdom and the success of the old and paired this with the creativity and ingenuity of the new to build a village that is replete with all the tools needed to educate the total child.

NVLA embraces and nurtures creativity, individuality, self-expression and diversity. Our student body reflects the ethnic, economic and religious diversity of the world at large, which allows each student’s global perspective to be molded by experience rather than by conjecture. Our students are aware that they are responsible for themselves as individuals, and recognize that they are an integral part of their family, community and the world.

Our students are both thinkers and “doers”, both team members and team leaders. They are aware that they are responsible for themselves as individuals, and recognize that they are an integral part of their family, community and the world. They are thinking individuals who have a thirst for learning and a yearning for discovery. It is the goal of NVLA that these dynamic and self-confident young people become the catalyst for positive change in the very complex global environment of their future.

Based on best educational practices from top educators and theorists, NVLA has crafted (and continues to refine) an environment where academic and personal excellence, respect, effective communication and integrity are essential qualities that serve as benchmarks in creating well-rounded, self-confident and happy individuals. Our faculty, staff and parents are committed to imparting the knowledge and wisdom that lead each student to his/her personal, social and academic best. NVLA is the foundation upon which our students stand to reach their highest potential. Welcome to our website and to the New Village Leadership Academy!
