About New Life Academy Of Excellence, Inc

New Life Academy of Excellence was conceived by a group of parents and community leaders who expressed an interest in assisting the Gwinnett County School Board by developing a world-class chartered educational program. Under the leadership of Alphonsa Foward, Jr., efforts began with a goal to provide a safe positive environment that encourages independent and creative thinking for students through an integrated curriculum. After much planning and discussion, the Gwinnett County School Board recommended the approval of this charter school through the Georgia Board of Education. Approval was granted on August 10, 2006. New Life Academy of Excellence, Inc. became the first approved start-up charter school in the history of Gwinnett County. The school served over 200 students, in grades K – 3 in 2006 – 2007. Subsequent school years saw the admitting of grades 4 and 5. Grades 6, 7 and 8 were added over the next 3 school years. Currently, New Life Academy of Excellence serves 670 students.
