A well-grounded education can take you anywhere.

NMH’s intensive, immersive curriculum will help you go further. Do more. It starts in small classes with dedicated teachers, and expands from there. You’ll push your intellectual boundaries, create work you didn’t think you could. Traditional borders will break down: between math and science, between social justice and sustainability, between the campus community and the world beyond. An NMH education will not only prepare you for college, it will also broaden your view of the world, and what you’ll be able to accomplish in it.
