Our Learning Programs

If you’re looking for a childcare facility that goes above and beyond in every possible way, look no further. This school is a true gem compared to other centers in the Denver area and I genuinely couldn’t imagine a better place for my child to learn, grow, and feel completely safe and loved. The teachers don’t just “watch” children — they actively engage, teach, and care for them in ways that support social, emotional, and academic growth. You’ll notice the positive changes in your child almost immediately. I can’t say enough good things about this place. It’s more than a daycare — it’s a second home.

— Kewal D., New Horizon Academy Centennial parent

New Horizon Academy is one of the best schools around. We went through two previous schools with horrific experiences and have felt beyond welcomed here at New Horizon Academy. The staff are amazing and the curriculum is fantastic. We have met so many amazing families that we see outside of school as well. We love coming to school each day!

— Lauren M., New Horizon Academy Centennial parent
