New Vista Tech Academy

This year, we are launching a pilot program for 11th and 12th grade students to learn technical skills, such as computer coding and digital media skills. Post graduate students can attend classes at the New Vista Tech Academy site at: 23272 Mill Creek Drive, Laguna Hills, CA. Computer Science classes that provide certificates/credit from Saddleback College, are given in a supportive learning environment, with state of the art equipment., small classes with individualized goals, are provided. Students will be able to become proficient in multiply areas of computer technology, and be prepared for further study, pertinent internships or job placements. Students from age 18 to 26 are welcome to apply the NVTA.

This program is currently funded through a grant from the Orange County Department of Education (OC Pathways) and the McBeth Foundation, with in-kind funding from New Vista School for the 11th and 12th grade program, and support for the development and maintenance of the adult program.

In the past 3 years I have witnessed firsthand the change that takes place within students who go through our Transition program. These students leave New Vista with a greater sense of confidence after having been given the opportunity to work in a real business and gain experiences in multiple community environments. With the proper training, attitude, and a little patience, these young adults can achieve any goals they set their mind to.

Our experience at New Vista has been night and day from our previous experience in the school district public system! Teachers in the public system repeatedly said our son was unable to read and comprehend third grade books. At New Vista, our son has read 33 books in the last 4.5 months - 82% of them at a grade level of 4.6. Sincere thanks to the whole NV Staff for your dedication and commitment in helping these kids do better in life.

Our daughter started New Vista in 7th grade with the plan that she would only stay there for her middle school years. We were so happy with her progress, that now, 5 years later, she is about to graduate. Thanks to the New Vista teachers and staff, she has blossomed socially and academically, and she has been able to participate in high school activities we never thought possible. The options after graduation are now wide open for her....

I can give you a story of my son's journey but this quote basically sums it up. "You transformed an impossible child into an adult with possibilities". Regarding plans after Noah graduates... NV's adult program. I'm excited to be participating at ground level with other senior parents and Ms. Donnelly. Thank you!
