Reader insights

Two comments about the New Roads

New Roads is a very free-spirited school where students can learn and grow in a supportive atmosphere. The faculty and staff are always available, ready to help. They listen and challenge students. It's a small school with very few rules. It's a school that allows for the independent spirit to thrive. I never felt confined. I know that compared to the public school down the street from my house this is a much safer, happy place to be.

New Roads School is a very expensive school. It is not a worthy school for what you pay. the education is weak
too many rules and regulations that works only for the school.
