About School District: New Foundations Charter School, a caring community of learners, is located at 8001 Torresdale Avenue, in the Greater Northeast section of Philadelphia. Opening in 2000, NFCS is now a kindergarten through tenth grade school serving over 900 students. Here at NFCS, the staff, faculty, administration, students, parents, and community work together to provide a safe and healthy environment where every child can learn and become empowered to make a real difference. We celebrate the diversity of our students, offer a challenging curriculum, and extend the classroom into the community. NFCS also provides academic enrichment through service learning, after school programs, interdisciplinary projects, and a school-wide caring community program. All students receive instruction in core subjects such as Language Arts, Science, Math, and Social Studies, as well as specialty subjects Foreign Language, Art, Music, Physical Education, Health, and Computer Science. NFCS is a full-inclusion school, and provides support for its special education students. The mission of the New Foundations Charter School is to provide students with the academic, social, and emotional foundations and skills necessary to become high achieving, socially competent stewards of their communities. The founders of the New Foundations Charter School will ensure a commitment to lifelong learning and achievement of all our students by creating an atmosphere of caring that pervades every aspect of school life, and promotes attachment to and responsibility for all members of our school community.
