I absolutely love working for this school. Everybody cares about each other. The administration makes sure that you are happy and have the resources you need to get the job done. I look forward to many more years at NNG.
Michael Margiotta Lower School Science Teacher
Nuasin Next Generation allows students to make their way to a better future. We have a community of respect for everyone no matter their race or skin color. NNG is a place where exposure and opportunity are not predicated on zip code, and where our visions are produced from a lens of equity. NNG is a place of inspiration; I am privileged to encounter and cultivate the brilliant young minds of my community.Adil Bhatti 8th Grade Math Teacher
In the summer of 2014, everything changed! I was offered a position to enter back into the classroom. I began my journey as a Paraprofessional. This position helps support teacher teams throughout the school year. More and more grade bands were becoming strong with more teacher support. As one instructional coach put it, "a team of two and operates as one!" I supported the team for three years and then carried the same support into first grade. It was then I decided to pursue my certification and teach. Nuasin is a family. They support, guide, and develop you as a scholar and yes, as a teacher too! I'm having the time of my life with first grade as I watch them grow.Yvette Spellen 1st Grade Social Studies/Science Teacher
Generation. That word alone motivates me to show up everyday. What makes NNG so special is that our scholars are amazing people. I am lucky to have an opportunity to teach them about the world they will change. Never have I worked in a place where the staff and faculty share a genuine passion and interest in our scholars. It is a joy to walk through the doors everyday and be there to make a positive impact in their lives.Michael Margiotta Lower School Science Teacher
Nuasin Next Generation is extraordinary due to our incredible scholars, educational staff, parents, and community partners who bring life, love, energy, and passion into each and every class, each and every day. There is no lack of passion from any of my colleagues, which drives me to perform at one hundred and ten percent without fail.Nicholas Chevalier High School Spanish Teacher
