WELCOME TO NEW HEIGHTS

New Heights Charter School of Brockton (NHCSB) is Massachusetts’ first public school to prepare ALL of its students to earn free, transferable college credits while in high school. Many of our students begin taking college courses as early as 9th grade, and all students have the opportunity to graduate with at least 12 college credits from one of our partner institutions.

WHY NHCSB IS DIFFERENT

We believe that every student can succeed and thrive with the proper educational preparation and support. Our rigorous academic model offers a strong focus on literacy and numeracy which is the key to future success in college and beyond. Our culture empowers every student to value and take responsibility for their personal academic journey. While all students earn some college credit while in high school more than half of New Heights graduates have earned their Associate’s Degree and have gone on to further their college education.

OUR CURRICULUM SETS US APART

We employ an accelerated, challenging curriculum to inspire our scholars to reach their full potential. We balance our curriculum with reading, writing and discourse in all content areas where students are challenged to apply skills to real-world and relevant topics. We aim to close achievement gaps to provide our scholars the opportunity to excel.

OUR REPORT CARD

100% of all high school students have Naviance portfolios created with grade appropriate academic and career tasks assigned.

51% of our 2021-22 graduating class earned over 5500 credits, at a savings of over $1.1million. 37% of them were students with high needs.

89% of students report that they want to attend college after leaving high school.

We are committed to remaining faithful to our charter and meeting all expectations.
