New World Schoolhouse of the Arts (NWSA) is a public magnet high schoolhouse and college in Downtown Miami, Florida. Its dual-enrollment programs in the visual and performing arts are organized into four strands: visual arts, dance, theatre (comprising programs in theater and musical theatre), and music (comprising programs in instrumental music and vocal music).
The New World School of the Arts was a pioneer in dual-enrollment education, arising out of an experiment betwixt Miami Northwestern Loftier School and Dade Community College (now Miami Dade College). NWSA was formally created every bit an consequence of that experiment by the 1986 New Globe School of the Arts Act of the Florida State Legislature as "a center of excellence for the performing and visual art",[2] with the stated intention "that specific attending be given to the needs of artistically talented high school students who are occupationally oriented to the arts."[2]
The school is jointly administered by Miami-Dade County Public Schools, Miami Dade College, and the University of Florida. The administrative construction includes an executive board with representatives from each of the partners as well as community seats and a foundation board.
The school awards an Associate of Arts caste from Miami Dade College, Available of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Music degrees from the University of Florida, and a high school degree from the Miami Dade County schools.
Admissions into the high school are through the Miami Dade Visual and Performing Arts Magnet Program, requiring an audience and/or portfolio (run into High Schoolhouse Admissions).
New World High School is rated #149 in the national rankings for best loftier schools, #17 in rankings for all-time Florida high schools and #42 magnet schools in accordance with the 2018 U.S. News & World Report. In 2009, NWSA was 82nd in this ranking.[iii] Both the higher and the loftier schoolhouse are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
History [edit]
The vision of PAVAC (Performing and Visual Arts Eye) was to integrate Miami Northwestern High School and provide loftier-quality arts training for students in Dade County. The original PAVAC director (1975) was Jackie (last name unknown), with Dr. Everett Abney serving equally principal. At that fourth dimension, Ms. Samiento served as an art teacher and Charlie Austin equally music instructor. Later, Samiento took over every bit director when Jackie relocated out of state.[ citation needed ]
In the early days of PAVAC, Irene Fox was the Mod Dance teacher and Shelley Fox (recommended by Carrie Meek) was hired as the ballet teacher-choreographer. After Irene Trick left the program, Shelley Fox continued to recruit students from Dade County Public Schools. She developed a high quality ballet programme and performing company.
The PAVAC plan provided students with busing from their local high school to Miami Northwestern for the afternoon arts classes. The PAVAC Dancers performed at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, at locations on Miami Beach, Florida land conferences and festivals, and on local TV stations. The highlight of the plan was the premier of Richard Strauss' original ballet Decease and Transfiguration at Miami Dade Jr. Higher Northward. At that time, the PAVAC ballet program was the only section that successfully integrated Miami Northwestern High School.
Kendell Bently-Bakery, inspired by the academic success of that program, and attempting to accept greater advantage of the facilities and faculty of Miami Dade College (MDC), then known as Miami Dade Community College, proposed the creation of a dual-enrollment school of the arts: morning academics were to exist at the student's home high schoolhouse; in the afternoon students were to exist bussed to one of the two MDCC campuses for classes in art or the performing arts.[four] Upon high school graduation, the student received a diploma from the home high school and higher credits for the art classes, awarded through MDC.
In summer 1982, county auditions were held for 10th–12th graders. In autumn 1982, two dual-enrollment PAVACs opened, one at the North Campus of MDCC, "PAVAC Northward", headed past Kendell Bently-Baker; the other at the South Campus of MDCC (now called the Kendall Campus), "PAVAC South", headed by Richard Janaro and Margaret Pelton. Marcy Samiento connected to serve every bit DCPS coordinator.[v] At that time, many Miami-Dade high schools served only 10th–12th grade.
The commencement PAVAC dual-enrollment graduates were in 1983. The Miami Northwestern High School program continued as before the cosmos of PAVAC,[half dozen] and is currently amongst the PVA (performing and visual arts) magnet programs in the Miami-Dade County school organisation.
In 1984, Marcy Sarmiento, Kandell Bentley-Baker and Richard Janaro were asked to programme a successor school to PAVAC. Knowing they would demand approving from the Florida Legislature they enlisted civic leader and lobbyist Seth Gordon to join them. Gordon was later elected to serve every bit the outset chair of the Executive Lath of the school and served in that capacity for half-dozen years. They studied other arts schools in the country, visiting LaGuardia Loftier School, Juilliard and the North Carolina Schoolhouse of the Arts.[vii] A bill creating the "South Florida School of the Arts" passed the Florida House of Representatives on May 30, 1984.[8] Soon afterward, the New World name was called as part of larger plans for urban and cultural evolution which included the eponymous New Globe Symphony Orchestra, and to avoid confusion with the Florida School of the Arts.[9] The Florida legislature passed the "New World School of the Arts Act" in 1986.[10]
The NWSA opened its doors in autumn 1987. The continuing students at PAVAC'south North and Southward transitioned into NWSA, as did many of PAVAC's faculty. NWSA issued its kickoff high schoolhouse diploma in 1988 to the former PAVAC students. NWSA enrolled its first freshman college students in 1988. In order to laurels a BFA, it partnered with Florida International University (FIU). On January 12, 1994 University of Florida replaced FIU in this partnership.[eleven] [12] The showtime graduating class of the college was in 1992.[thirteen]
Later the high schoolhouse expanded to include 9th grade.

High schoolhouse admissions and enrollment [edit]
Access to New World School of the Arts is determined by a performance audition or a portfolio review. For detailed information, run into the audition requirements for each division on its website. It serves as both a college and a loftier schoolhouse; it is the only loftier school solarium in Miami-Dade County. NWSA continued the PAVAC model of admission based entirely on audition. This differs from other Miami-Dade County Public School (MDCPS) magnets which are not VPA (visual and performing arts) magnets, which have a mixed model of entrance eligibility requirements and lottery. Besides unlike the other MDCPS magnets, simply like other VPA magnets, information technology does non have the "sibling rule", a policy of giving priority if a student'south sibling is already attending the magnet school.[23]
In 2011, i,268 students applied for admission to New World, competing for 140 available spots. This gives New Earth an eleven% admissions rate, making it one of Miami's near competitive public loftier schools.[24]
Total enrollment for 2009–10 was 828, with 473 in the high school and 355 in the higher.
School demographics for 2009–x were 35% male and 65% female; 42% Hispanic (of any race), 36% White not-Hispanic, 19% Black, three% Asian, and less than ane% other.[25]
