What do you like about early childhood?
There are so many things to love about early childhood. I love to see the “aha” moments when a child masters a new skill. I love the pure honesty of a preschooler’s words. I love the joy on each child’s face when they see something new and exciting. I love how a hug can melt away the sadness in a toddler. I love how every day is different than the day before!
What makes your school unique?
One thing that makes our school special and unique is the number of long-term teachers we have with us. Our school is well-established in the community, and we have a strong relationship with the City of Savage. We are regular sponsors of citywide family events and activities.
What is your favorite children’s book?
I have three favorite children’s books: “Each Peach Pear Plum” by Janet & Allan Ahlberg, “Home for a Bunny” by Margaret Wise Brown, and “The Giving Tree” by Shel Silverstein

I can’t put into words how special this school is. Our son has been a part of the New Horizon Academy family since he was 8 months old and has now graduated from the preschool program. As we no longer need daycare, we are very sad to have to say goodbye. The teachers here are top-notch and quickly became like family - our son ran into school every day so happy to see them. He learned so much and is more than prepared for kindergarten. I can honestly say that after over 5 years, we never had a negative experience. It amazes me that most of the staff have been here since we started. Thank you, NHA, for providing learning, healthy meals, and so much love to our boy!
