New Hampton School

New Hampton School cultivates lifelong learners who will serve as active global citizens. We enhance the potential of students, promote academic success, and a caring community. Our students are talented artists, athletes, and leaders who often learn best through hands-on experiences.

We define global citizenship as:

• Experiencing, exploring, and appreciating world cultures, traditions, histories, languages, and religions.
• Connecting to relevant economic, social, and political issues to gain a sense of international-mindedness.
• Engaging with real world issues to gain optimism, compassion, and empathy for individuals and communities that differ from those we know.
• Using analytical thinking and social skills to be creative and to communicate effectively through academics, athletics, artistic expression, and service.
• Increasing awareness of our relationship and responsibility to global sustainability.
