On October 2, New City School held its 25th birthday party.
The celebration included traditional birthday party games for children and a rousing Caribbean music concert by New City parent Robert Fishbone and his band, Sambistas.

The original mission of New City, to educate children from different backgrounds, remains strong today.
This academic year, New City awarded over $140,000 in need-based financial aid. Kids from 46 different zip codes in the metropolitan area attend New City.
