More than 50 members of the Filipino affinity group gathered on the San Mateo campus for Nueva's first-ever Filipino Arts and Culture Event in March. The event showcased Filipino dance, writing, fabric art, and more. We invited four members of the Nueva Filipino community to reflect on their experiences at this event.
Nueva is an independent PreK–12 school where gifted learners discover and develop their passions, and learn to make choices that positively and profoundly impact the world.

"Nueva is more than just a school for gifted learners. It’s more than just a place where students focus on design thinking and social emotional learning. It’s a beloved community, inclusive and compassionate, collectively embracing diverse perspectives and empowering everyone to make choices that benefit the world."
