"I remember the first day I came to sit in on some classes.  It was a dim rainy day, and I remember having no idea what New Hope was about, other than someplace where I might be coming to learn in the next year, and where our good friends the Thompsons had gone. I didn't recognize anybody, but the one thing I did notice was how they were so accepting. I received a warm reception, and for a little, timid eleven-year-old, that "sealed the deal".  From my first full year onward, getting to know you and fellow students, I have come to appreciate the community that you have created."

-- Graham Jackson, Class of '13

"The unity and energy in the New Hope community never cease to buoy my spirits."

-- Linda Libert, Public Speaking Tutor
