The NativityMiguel model was founded in New York in the early 1970s and has demonstrated great success, being replicated more than 30 times across the nation. The model is characterized by operating an extended day program (7:30 AM – 5:30 PM) and extended school year (early August – mid June) that serves families from under resourced backgrounds. The NativityMiguel model provides a challenging academic curriculum, wrap-around services to support the whole student, a graduate support program that follows students through high school and beyond, and a faith-based approach to education.
