The New School is an independent school that respects, embraces, and celebrates diversity in its curriculum, student body, and staff. The New School does not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, color, national or ethnic origin in the admission of students, in hiring, or in the administration of its educational program.

The New School’s mission to provide a well-rounded experience implies a “whole child approach” to education. We believe that learning happens best when we honor the whole person. We support every person's right to define, express, and live comfortably within their own evolving identity. We are committed to cultivating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment that recognizes the worth of each individual. By acknowledging our differences and cultivating cultures of belonging, we are a stronger community.
