Newfound School is named after
Newfound Lake located in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The lake
is unspoiled, pure, and surrounded by beautiful mountains. It is a very
peaceful place. Likewise, Newfound School, in Carrollton, Texas
is a place of learning and a source of inspiration in a peaceful
setting. Our school is designed to provide meaningful instruction and
learning in a caring, nurturing atmosphere.
Newfound is a school with a challenging academic focus with a social
skills component as an integral part of the curriculum. We serve students
in grades (PreK-12) with behavior and learning challenges. Our
specialties include: High Functioning Autism, Asperger's, PDD, Emotional
and Behavioral Challenges, ADD/ADHD, and LD. Students with other
needs will be considered. Newfound's curriculum is comprehensive. We
have a small student to staff ratio to insure individual attention. A
learning plan based on individual strengths and weaknesses is developed
for each child. Newfound's Executive Directors, Dr. Marsha Guernsey, and
Dr. Bill Robb have Doctorates in Education, and many years of experience
with regular and special education. Executive Directors are "hands on"
and actively involved with all aspects of the school.
Our campus
includes a large play facility with modern playground equipment. We are
a short walking distance from Mary Heads Carter Park which was voted as
one of the best playgrounds in the Dallas area. Newfound is a school
