How we help

We have created 4 ongoing concrete, regular opportunities for support in the New Haven Academy Schedule and Calendar.

Academic Support Sessions

There are 2, 45-minute support sessions weekly for all NHA students. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, all students identify and sign up for academic support sessions or enrichment opportunities based on their identified needs. Advisors help students to make thoughtful choices about how to identify and prioritize their needs.

Responsibility Wednesdays

Students who are not Responsible and/or struggling to demonstrate mastery will have an additional 45 minutes of work time and support on Wednesdays throughout the year (from 1:45-2:30 PM). Students who are on track will be excused at 1:40 or participate in activities from 1:30-2:30.

Academic Support Days

Students will participate in additional academic support sessions toward the end of each quarter and semester.

English Lab, Algebra Lab, Read 180, and reading support

Students who have struggled to master the skills and/or content of Literature or Math will be eligible for an Academic Support Lab. This is a course in their schedule that meets 3 times per week and is designated to help them develop their skills and understanding of the standards of a discipline. In addition, we offer intensive reading support for students who qualify.

NHA provides built-in support sessions so all students can achieve their goals.
