Awards and Accolades
Hi, I’m Becky. I started working at New Horizon Academy in October of 2000. I started in high school and quickly fell in love with teaching and building relationships with children and their families. My family includes my husband Justin, and our 3 children Madison, Olivia, and Dylan. We have two dogs and a kitty. I love spending time outdoors, and photography. My favorite part of the day is greeting families at pick up and drop off and visiting classrooms throughout the day.
