The New Century School

We have been so happy with TNCS since our son started last summer when he turned 2. Our son is quite reserved and risk-averse, and the learning environment provided by his preschool teachers helped him to thrive and soar this past year. We have seen him grow in leaps and bounds: language development, self-esteem/confidence, independence, and overall happiness. He talks about school with so much excitement, and he loves his teachers and friends. Each morning when we arrive at school, we are greeted with smiles, and a special hello from all. The school staff have known our son's name since the beginning, which makes us feel welcome and a real part of the school community. There is nothing a parent could want more than to drop their child off for the day knowing that he is going to have a great time and be loved and nurtured to grow into his best self. We know that the methods used by teachers at TNCS are the way to go for our family. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

Wonderful place. Our daughter loves it here.

An academically rigorous yet loving environment. It is amazing to hear your six year old singing to herself in Mandarin. The immersion in languages is mind-opening for parents as well as kids. At the New Century School, Montessori principles blend with an emphasis on both sides of the brain (outstanding arts and creative outlets AND strong science and mathematics). The teachers and staff are superb. The environment, a restored parochial school building, is comfortable and beautiful. After-care activities spark fun and imagination. They also use the surrounding neighborhood as part of the classroom (e.g., an impromptu field trip to tour the Pride of Baltimore when it sails up to a nearby wharf.) We are very lucky to have this new school established in the heart of the city.
