Our Learning Programs

We have been at New Horizon Academy for 6 months and can’t say enough positive things about the school’s teachers and leadership. They are incredibly kind and nurturing, working hard to ensure our children are cared for and loved. My little one has grown so much in his classroom. It is also evident that the directors work very hard to maintain a high-quality program focused on the children’s growth and needs, as well as retaining excellent teachers. We highly recommend New Horizon Academy in Erie!

— Megan A., New Horizon Academy Erie parent

This is the best childcare facility I’ve ever put my child in! Her teachers are the sweetest and kindest people you’ll ever meet. They made my daughter feel so welcome and took her in as their own. The directors are so sweet and have very good communication with parents. I’m very happy I found this school and enrolled my child here to further her education!

— Alexyia L., New Horizon Academy Erie parent

We’ve been lucky enough to have our kiddos enrolled here since the very beginning, and we can’t say enough about the incredible staff that makes this place feel like home. The directors are always so friendly and welcoming at the front, and each of the amazing teachers has been such a loving presence in our children’s lives. They’ve created a space where our kids feel not just cared for, but truly known. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the endless energy, love, and kindness you bring every single day. We appreciate you more than words can say!

— Jennifer H., New Horizon Academy Erie parent

We’ve been loving our experience with New Horizon Academy – Erie! Our infant daughter is thriving because of her classroom teachers who truly treat her like family. They also have the best art and sensory activities. When I show family/friends pictures from her day, they constantly say things like, “OMG I love that they let the infants do the art themselves instead of the staff doing it for them!”, or “I can see why you chose this center.” Communication has been very easy and quick, and their menu is also great. I love the variety and great nutritious foods they offer!

— Chrissy N., New Horizon Academy Erie parent
