Our Learning Programs

We can’t say enough great things about New Horizon Academy Dell Road…it’s been our home away from home for our 3 children for so many years! It is a top notch facility with a welcoming and nurturing environment. They possess quality, caring educators that our children built strong bonds with. As busy parents that work full-time, the fact that they are always open during every weather pattern that Minnesota has to offer, provided a level of reliability and dependability that was unmatched. We cannot thank the staff enough for all they have done for our family, and how well our children were set up for success starting kindergarten. You’ll always have a special place in our hearts!

— Natania S., New Horizon Academy Eden Prairie parent

The school is extremely clean and the teachers and staff are very well organized! I can’t say enough about the ease of transition and the awesome management staff and teachers. Everyone is very friendly and greets you at drop-off time each day. The amount that my son is learning at 21 months is really amazing and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to enroll!

— Hayley C., New Horizon Academy Eden Prairie parent

Our granddaughter attended New Horizon Academy from the time she was an infant until she started kindergarten. She was both safe and happy at NHA on Dell Road…exactly what a grandparent is looking for. As a retired Security Executive, I was always impressed by the manner in which the building was secured, as well as how the staff monitored the children’s activities both inside and outside the facility. Thanks New Horizon Academy, for making this a positive and memorable experience for our granddaughter and for us.

— Steve C., New Horizon Academy Eden Prairie parent

I’m so glad my son attends the Eden Prairie Dell Road pre-k! He is learning so much in this key year before kindergarten and I am so happy I decided to move him here. Thank you so much to the Eden Prairie teachers for everything you do!

— Joseph C., New Horizon Academy Eden Prairie parent
