NHHSA created a new educational model because we believe that current educational programs do not address the modern student, have lost sight of individualized study, and lack the structure to create safe environments for our kids.
Therefore, we strive for a more broadminded approach to education that keeps the student at the center of educational progress and that keeps campuses and classrooms small to insure safe settings for children.
NHHSA has four locations in the El Paso area: East, West, Horizon, andTransmountain areas
We are coming to the Arizona, Houston, and Austin areas soon!
