New London Public Schools

Cultivating Excellence & Opportunities

Our Vision

The vision of the New London Parent University (NLPU) is to provide New London Public School Parents and families the professional development, resources and skills that lead to greater levels of advocacy for children, schools and the community.

Our Mission

New London Parent University (NLPU) aims to empower, engage and educate parents to be partners in their child’s education.  Through a series of “university” style learning sessions, parents will participate in selecting classes of choice, including child development, what I should know about bullying, how to prepare my student for college, conscious discipline practices, alcohol and substance abuse,  social media, and more.  NLPU is free to families and includes food, translation services, transportation, on-site childcare and a graduation ceremony.

Empower - Engage - Educate
