Student Life

At NMSD, in addition to academic excellence, we focus on the emotional and social development of our students.

Our Student Life program supports each student’s full human potential in a safe and emotionally rewarding environment.

We strongly believe parental involvement and input maximize students’ growth.

Our residential program works closely with families and provides quality access to communication, language, and literacy, which allows for positive interactions and lifelong friendships.
