Newman International Academy at Pioneer serves 5th and 6th grade students in a nurturing, disciplined environment whereby students can learn and grow. Students benefit from the caring interaction between faculty and staff and getting to know teachers well. NIAP provides a positive environment for young people as they navigate the “middle school years” transitioning to greater self-awareness and independence. We provide mentor groups where we intentionally mentor students and encourage them to implement positive life and leadership principles. Students pursue their passions in academics, athletics, fine arts, robotics, and more. Students are challenged with the option for Pre-AP and honors courses in a safe learning environment.
