Examples of Participation
New Visions for Public Schools has worked on several projects, mostly successful. These include:
- Radically redesigning more than 30 public schools throughout the five boroughs(External Link).
- Starting the New Century High Schools Initiative (NCHSI), which seeks to turn around failing high schools by including communities into smaller, innovative centers (External Link). 83 new public high schools have been crafted out of concept, since only 2002. The program is also crucial to the present New York City Department of Education's turnaround of the city's high schools.

Principals also receive advice on management of their schools after they're several years into operation. Faculty members of such schools are supported as well.
