GENERAL INFORMATION
New Horizon School for the Performing Arts owns the building. Many charter schools "rent" space in a facility. New Horizon is in complete ownership of the facility. The professional lighting and sound in the dance room (cultural hall) is quite exraordinary. The basket ball court outside is also a volleyball court. The park across the street (north) gives students room to stretch their legs and enjoy the outdoors at breaks and at lunch times.
Free and reduced hot lunches are also part of the New Horizon School program. New Horizon is a certified "PUBLIC ELEMENTARY SCHOOL sponsored by the Arizona Charter Board.
