Its dual-enrollment programs in the visual and performing arts are organized into four strands: visual arts, trip the light fantastic toe, theatre (comprising programs in theater and musical theatre), and music (comprising programs in instrumental music and vocal music).
The New World Schoolhouse of the Arts was a pioneer in dual-enrollment pedagogy, arising out of an experiment between Miami Northwestern High School and Dade Community College (now Miami Dade Higher). NWSA was formally created as an outcome of that experiment past the 1986 New Earth Schoolhouse of the Arts Act of the Florida State Legislature every bit "a center of excellence for the performing and visual art",[2] with the stated intention "that specific attention be given to the needs of artistically talented loftier schoolhouse students who are occupationally oriented to the arts."[2]

History [edit]
The vision of PAVAC (Performing and Visual Arts Middle) was to integrate Miami Northwestern High School and provide high-quality arts grooming for students in Dade County. The original PAVAC manager (1975) was Jackie (last name unknown), with Dr. Everett Abney serving equally principal. At that time, Ms. Samiento served every bit an art teacher and Charlie Austin as music instructor. Afterwards, Samiento took over equally manager when Jackie relocated out of state.[ citation needed ]
In the early days of PAVAC, Irene Fox was the Modernistic Trip the light fantastic instructor and Shelley Play tricks (recommended by Carrie Meek) was hired as the ballet teacher-choreographer. After Irene Play a joke on left the program, Shelley Fox connected to recruit students from Dade County Public Schools. She developed a high quality ballet plan and performing visitor.
The PAVAC program provided students with busing from their local loftier school to Miami Northwestern for the afternoon arts classes. The PAVAC Dancers performed at Vizcaya Museum and Gardens, at locations on Miami Beach, Florida state conferences and festivals, and on local Boob tube stations. The highlight of the program was the premier of Richard Strauss' original ballet Death and Transfiguration at Miami Dade Jr. College North. At that time, the PAVAC ballet program was the only department that successfully integrated Miami Northwestern High Schoolhouse.
Kendell Bently-Baker, inspired past the academic success of that program, and attempting to take greater reward of the facilities and faculty of Miami Dade Higher (MDC), and so known equally Miami Dade Community College, proposed the creation of a dual-enrollment school of the arts: morning academics were to exist at the pupil'due south dwelling house high school; in the afternoon students were to be bussed to one of the two MDCC campuses for classes in art or the performing arts.[four] Upon high school graduation, the student received a diploma from the domicile loftier school and college credits for the art classes, awarded through MDC.
In summer 1982, county auditions were held for 10th–12th graders. In fall 1982, ii dual-enrollment PAVACs opened, one at the North Campus of MDCC, "PAVAC North", headed by Kendell Bently-Bakery; the other at the South Campus of MDCC (now called the Kendall Campus), "PAVAC South", headed past Richard Janaro and Margaret Pelton. Marcy Samiento connected to serve as DCPS coordinator.[5] At that fourth dimension, many Miami-Dade high schools served merely 10th–12th grade.
The first PAVAC dual-enrollment graduates were in 1983. The Miami Northwestern High Schoolhouse plan continued as before the creation of PAVAC,[half-dozen] and is currently amid the PVA (performing and visual arts) magnet programs in the Miami-Dade Canton school system.
In 1984, Marcy Sarmiento, Kandell Bentley-Bakery and Richard Janaro were asked to plan a successor school to PAVAC. Knowing they would need approval from the Florida Legislature they enlisted borough leader and lobbyist Seth Gordon to join them. Gordon was afterward elected to serve every bit the beginning chair of the Executive Board of the schoolhouse and served in that chapters for six years. They studied other arts schools in the country, visiting LaGuardia High Schoolhouse, Juilliard and the N Carolina School of the Arts.[vii] A bill creating the "Due south Florida School of the Arts" passed the Florida Business firm of Representatives on May xxx, 1984.[8] Presently afterwards, the New Globe name was called as role of larger plans for urban and cultural development which included the eponymous New World Symphony Orchestra, and to avoid confusion with the Florida School of the Arts.[9] The Florida legislature passed the "New World Schoolhouse of the Arts Act" in 1986.[10]
The NWSA opened its doors in fall 1987. The continuing students at PAVAC'due south North and South transitioned into NWSA, equally did many of PAVAC's faculty. NWSA issued its offset high school diploma in 1988 to the one-time PAVAC students. NWSA enrolled its first freshman college students in 1988. In order to honour a BFA, it partnered with Florida International University (FIU). On January 12, 1994 University of Florida replaced FIU in this partnership.[11] [12] The commencement graduating class of the college was in 1992.[13]
Later the high school expanded to include 9th grade.
