Welcome to New Day School

Neo-Humanism is the spirit of benevolence. To teach love one must embody it. To embody love one must see all as divine.  To see all as divine, one must contemplate the divine self within us all & dance with the divinity as we proceed through our lives.”

- P.R. Sarkar,  founder of Ananda Marga

New Day School is part of the international Ananda Marga family of schools located in the heart of Portland’s eastside. We have been in the seven corner’s neighborhood since 1979. New Day School is a non-profit which provides universal, non-denominational education for around 69 preschoolers and kindergartners. Our school is a Neo-Humanist pre-school which is dedicated to the holistic development of the mind, body, heart and spirit, through the cultivation of creativity, intellectual faculties, ethical values and intuition of the children and teachers. Our education teaches respectful & loving service to all beings of this universe. Our curriculum is based on these very principles of Neo-Humanist Education (www.gurukul.edu)

New Day School offers full day preschool & kindergarten programs, serving children 2 ½-7 years of age.

New Day School is also a state licensed childcare center. Before and after care are included in a monthly tuition, making our program unique, in it’s accessibility to working families. To promote diversity in our community, New Day School offers sliding scale tuition (based on the federal free lunch program income scale), which welcomes families of all economic backgrounds.

New Day School is open 7:30am-5:30pm Monday through Friday with part week options available (M/W/F or T/Thu). We do not offer half days.
