New Providence High School Reviews
Rating 3.96 out of 5 94 reviews
It generally a great school. The faculty and staff truly care about the students and their wants and needs. Guidance through the college application process is exceptional and smooth, allowing for a stress-free senior year. Sports are always a wonderful experience, as the coaches are supportive, and the experiences are great; plenty of memories to be made. Diversity is much better than it was in the 2010s, and that's a huge positive. The food is decent, many different options to choose from. The music program is great, which I personally took part in freshman year. The guidance department is a strong suit as well, as students are able to find support at almost any time of the day, as long as it's scheduled. The principal and vice principal are great at their jobs, making students feel welcome and being super friendly. There are occasional trips to different countries if you're in certain language courses. Not sure what else to put, but I'd give it a 4.75/5
Haven’t experienced it yet but planning on raising our baby in New Providence when he becomes school age.
Music program is incredible from Marching Band, multiple choirs and theatre. Many opportunities to work hard to excel.
