Our Learning Programs

I am eternally grateful for this center and its staff. My children have attended the New Horizon Academy on Highway 55 for the last five years and love it! The teachers are very caring and we have formed amazing relationships with them. They feel like family! My youngest has grown and learned so much with New Horizon Academy’s curriculum.

— Anai A., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent

This New Horizon Academy was such a saving grace for us. When we moved to Plymouth unexpectedly, we had two children in daycare and had to scramble to find a new daycare center for them. New Horizon Academy was able to get our toddlers enrolled quickly and we have had nothing but good experiences ever since. The teachers are caring and kind and the director is very supportive and approachable. We are so incredibly grateful for the kindness and care they have provided our children.

— Michelle H., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent

New Horizon Academy has been such a great experience. My 8 and 6 year old have gone there since they were infants. They learned so much in their preschool program; my husband and I were completely confident that the transition to elementary school would be great. And it was!! The director and the entire staff are very welcoming and they really make you feel like family. We would and do recommend New Horizon Academy.

— Linda W., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent

I love how family oriented the center is and how the staff and management get to know the whole family and not just the kids. I’ve recommended other parents I know here because I love it so much. My kid learns so much everyday!

— Alexa J., New Horizon Academy Plymouth parent
