HEALTH & WELLNESS
We recognize the importance of helping our students grow into capable and resilient young men and women. To that end, the academic program alone is not sufficient. New LA has a program that runs throughout the grades to help students as they enter adolescence. In addition, New LA participates in the Share and Care program through Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, which allows us to have a certificated counselor on site three days per week. The counselor sees individuals, groups, and families as needed.
The following topics are addressed with all students through their advisory and by outside experts. For each topic, parent education is provided in order to make sure our parents have the tools to reinforce learning at home.
