E.O.E.
New Horizon Academy, a Minnesota family-owned and operated childcare company, has been serving young children since 1971. Our founder, Sue Dunkley, began her career as an elementary school teacher. Sue knew she needed to provide a nurturing place for children to go before they ventured out into the big world, a place that would help them believe in themselves. Today, Chad Dunkley, Sue’s son and one of New Horizon Academy’s first students, is our Chief Executive Officer. Because of our continuing love, belief, and dedication to children, we have flourished and become one of the nation’s most successful and respected providers of childcare and early education. As New Horizon Academy continues to grow and serve more families each year, we will always have family roots, a warm atmosphere, an open door, and a commitment to excellence.
