As its name implies, NYOS is far from run-of-the-mill. NYOS was founded in 1998 by a group of parents who wanted better for their children. A better academic program. A better learning environment. Better instructional tools. We strive toward these ideals every day.

Because NYOS is a public charter school, all students are required to take the TAKS tests. But you won't find any "drill and kill" at NYOS. No "teaching for the test". We believe that students should learn first and the rest will take care of itself.

Our academic program focuses on cognitive learning and problem solving. NYOS uses proven programs to go beyond teaching students "what". Students explore the "how" and "why" and learn the best ways to find the answers for themselves.

And while teaching is the primary mission of a school, NYOS builds a culture of community responsibility. Every family is required to volunteer at least 20 hours for the school per year. Students are encouraged to be part of the larger community as well. From recycling programs to food drives and beyond, students learn that giving back to the community is just as important as learning about it.
