About New Hope Academy

New Hope Academy opened its doors in 1996 when a Williamson County church became the catalyst for lasting change in the low-income neighborhoods of Middle Tennessee. Here, elementary school children and families of all races, economic brackets, and cultures learn, love, and live together in an environment that extends acceptance, hope, and an exceptional faith-based education to every child. To that end, New Hope Academy reserves 40 to 50 percent of its seats for children from low-income families. New Hope Academy provides education from pre-kindergarten through the sixth grade, with plans to build a middle school in the near future.

New Hope Academy is governed by equality, diversity, and acceptance.

It is a place where meaningful relationships eclipse racial and socioeconomic division. Through the power of excellent, faith-based education, students are set free to become all that they are made to be. The academics of New Hope Academy are truly exceptional, empowering each student to reach his or her God-given potential. This is vital as we prepare them for success in higher education and life as a whole.

Our students are recruited by the best college preparatory schools in the area, experiencing continued and growing success in all aspects of their development.

Of equal importance, they are being recognized not only for their superior academic abilities, but also for their leadership and service in their communities and in campus organizations. New Hope Academy has helped to spark a movement to empower the poor, end generational poverty, and inspire once-unthinkable racial reconciliation.
