DRAWING ON THE BEST OF THE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL TRADITION in the United States and emerging best practices in secondary education, NEIA strives to develop life-long learners who are fully prepared culturally, socially, emotionally, and academically to face the challenges of an ever-changing world.

The ability to calculate quickly. To understand scientific concepts. The courage and stamina to fail and try again, and to succeed. These are some of the traits that will prepare our students for top colleges and to enter fields that have not even been developed yet.
