New Horizon School

What New Horizon School does

New Horizon School is a private, 501(c)(3) non-profit school founded in 1995 and located on a single campus at 1111 South Carr Road, Renton, Washington. It exclusively serves students with learning disabilities, attention deficits, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, executive function challenges, and other learning differences in the Pacific Northwest, operating a continuous pathway of Elementary (grades 4-5), Middle School (6-8), High School (9-12), and a post-graduation THRIVE Transition Program, supplemented by a Summer Session.

The school's technology stack is built on third-party educational platforms rather than proprietary systems: Schoology is used as the learning management system for assignments, progress tracking, and parent communication; Zoom supports remote learning; ALEKS provides adaptive mathematics instruction; and Kurzweil 3000 supports reading and writing. The campus also operates a fabrication class equipped with 3D printers and sewing machines for hands-on project-based learning.

NHS is funded through a combination of recurring private school tuition and a multi-stream fundraising operation including an Annual Fund, a Spring Gala and auction, and corporate community rewards programs (Fred Meyer, Goodsearch, Office Depot, Box Tops for Education). Go-to-market is relationship-driven, relying on the school's website, a Facebook presence, campus tours, open houses, and referrals from healthcare and community partners. The school is governed by a Board of Directors led by Patricia Anderson and administered by Marla Veliz, with an 11-50 employee headcount and no disclosed revenue, funding rounds, or parent company.
