Academic / Therapeutic
We thrive on competition and challenge. We are dynamic, innovative, decision making, action oriented people. We like nothing better than to spot an emerging need of families or society and respond to it quickly with an appropriate program or service.
We cherish autonomy. We can act, unfettered by Boards or Trustees or elected officials. Of course that does not mean that we have no one to answer to for our actions. Far from it, we are governed by the free market. If we provide the quality of programs and services that families want and need, we attract and retain students: if not, students go elsewhere. We know of no better regulator that that.
We believe society needs such pluralism and benefits by having many educational options available. Parents should have a choice: different families desire different school experiences for their children; different children have different needs. We are proud that NIPSA schools encompass so much diversity.
Although we are fiercely independent, we realize that proprietary schools must work together, focus on common challenges, and speak out with pride about their contributions to American education. That is why NIPSA was founded, AND that is why we are growing. Our member schools now span the nation.
