About the School

  • Newmark K-8 School and Newmark High School are state-approved, private schools serving children living with autism spectrum disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, attention issues and other developmental disabilities.
  • Newmark believes in a highly structured educational environment that motivates and allows students to take an active role in their own learning, and where the student is at the center of the learning process.
  • We encourage academic risk-taking, collaboration, self-assessment/awareness, and reflection in pursuit of goals that reflect high academic standards.
  • Newmark is committed to helping our students succeed both academically and socially in an atmosphere that holds them accountable for their own achievement.
  • The cornerstone of each student’s development is an individually tailored, comprehensive academic program that utilizes an interactive, technology-infused approach.
  • Classroom learning is rounded out with training in social skills and responsible decision-making that is continually reinforced by our qualified staff.
  • Our learning system teaches students baseline skills, such as recalling, comprehending, and analyzing information, that give them the confidence to think and make decisions independently.
  • When these skills are mastered, students are challenged through realistic problem-solving activities that stimulate reasoning, foster creativity and integration of knowledge, and develop more sophisticated decision-making skills.
