New Roads School is a fully accredited K –12 college-preparatory independent educational community in Santa Monica, California. New Roads School was established in 1995 as a model for education in an ethnically, racially, culturally, and socio-economically diverse community. New Roads began as a middle school program with 70 students and has grown in both directions each year thereafter. We now serve over 650 students representing the kaleidoscope of communities that make up Los Angeles. New Roads provides financial assistance to more approximately 50% of our families. Over the past 18 years, New Roads has dedicated approximately $70 million to financial aid.
