NUHS was founded in 2003, financed by a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The school enrolls students primarily from the North Clackamas School District, but accepts enrollment from other local school districts as well.

To obtain a diploma, students are required to complete a minimum 60-hour internship with a local business that reflects their career aspirations and complete accompanying course work.

According to recent researches[citation needed] New Urban has been qualified as the most academically intelligent school for all of North Clackamas district.

Academics

In 2008, 40% of the school's seniors received their high school diploma. Of 68 students, 27 graduated, 15 dropped out, and 26 are still in high school.[2][3]
