New Visions Museum School of Exploration and Discovery

Entering the doors of New Visions, Freeport's first Magnet School, one is immediately struck by student art work and artifacts in the grand lobby. Such exhibits are on display throughout the building and are a reflection of the school’s museum theme. The newest of the district’s schools, New Visions, provides opportunities for students to explore their world first-hand. Through partnerships with Cradle of Aviation Museum, Hofstra Museum and Long Island Children’s Museum, children investigate the world through the study of documents and objects and are encouraged to convey what they have learned in a variety of ways.  Teachers participate in on-going staff development opportunities to examine and implement best instructional practices. Our inter-disciplinary approach to teaching and learning ensures that students are given the tools for college and career readiness. In addition to the academic program, New Visions encourages good citizenship through the teaching of 5 core principles-“be safe”, “be caring”, “be respectful”, “be responsible”, and “be here and be ready” to learn

Constructed in 2003, New Visions is unique in design and boasts a state-of-the-art building that is child-friendly and able to accommodate the 21st century learner. Classroom suites allow for large and small group instruction to best meet students’ needs. A focal point of our school is our ultra-modern library which affords students and teachers the space and technological tools to enhance their studies through a variety of media.

New Visions enjoys partnering with our parents and looks forwards to such events as Discovery Day, Parents as Reading Partners, STEAM Night, Valentines Sweetheart Dance and more.


Honoring the memory of Sept. 11

Freeport Schools took part in solemn tributes to remember the events of Sept. 11, paying respect to the lives lost and celebrating the dedication of local heroes who continue to keep Freeport safe.  The day of remembrance served as a moment of reflection, unity and education for students, ensuring they understand the lasting impact of the day on the nation and the strength that arose from the tragedy.

At Freeport High School, the Navy JROTC led a schoolwide memorial, with announcements highlighting the significance of the day’s events. They also joined in the community’s observance by participating in a special ceremony at the Bayview Firehouse 3 Memorial, where they paid tribute to the victims and survivors.

New Visions Elementary School hosted its annual Heroes Day, inviting members of the Freeport Fire Department and the Freeport Police Department to be part of the commemoration. Students and staff wore the colors of the American flag—red, white and blue—as symbols of peace, hope and unity. Priscilla Quiroz, a fourth grade student, shared the poem Heroes, after which the entire school observed a moment of silence as “If You’re Out There” by John Legend played in the background.

Superintendent Ms. Fia Davis expressed the importance of honoring the day. “Sept. 11 was a day that changed our country, and all of us forever, and I want to thank each of you for taking the time to recognize this day,” she said. “This moment is about never forgetting the sacrifice of the lives lost, the sacrifice of the emergency workers who ran toward danger and not away from it, and the civilians who were simply going about their lives. We honor them today, so they are never forgotten.”
