A Different Kind of Middle School Experience

New Agenda’s Middle Years Academy, a microschool, for home-school students, is a small, intentionally designed cohort built for up to 6 learners who benefit from individualized support, accountability to academics, real-life application, and a more connected, flexible school experience. This is not a traditional classroom. Rather, this includes a community-based learning environment where academics, executive function, social thinking, and real-world experiences come together to support the whole child. The Home-Base for the program will be New Agenda’s Office at 1504 Santa Rosa Road, Suite 115, Richmond, VA 23229. For more information, email us at admin@newagendacoaching.com.
