My daughter loves New Horizon Academy! The rooms are open with many windows, and they have a communal center room they call the "great room" where the children can come together and have inside recess. The classrooms are set up for their educational success. The director is communicative, and all the teachers we have interacted with have been great. We are very happy here.
