New Horizon School, Irvine believes in the power of planning. We began with the campus on Truman Street with an enrollment of 80 students. More than twenty years later, we are honored to serve 400+ students in preschool through 8th grade. Our team is continuously looking for ways to thoughtfully pursue new concepts, new opportunities, and new ways to be the best version of ourselves.
New Horizon School, Irvine’s strategic plan is the result of an intensive year-long community-wide effort. Through quantitative surveys and qualitative focus groups, we asked people from every New Horizon constituency to share their thoughts, identifying the School’s strengths, opportunities, and aspirations. Our Strategic Planning Consultants provided advice, guidance, and structure through every step of the process.

Based upon collective feedback and a great deal of research, we’ve created a multi-year strategic plan. This road map will focus on: advancing New Horizon Irvine’s curricula; maximizing the value of our learning spaces; strengthening our community relationships and re-engaging our alumni; and strategizing the financial stability of our organization and our ability to steward the future. The goals are set forth on the following pages
This has been an enlightening, inspiring process. And it is only the beginning. Now that the plan has been finalized, it’s time to implement it. Just as it took a community effort to create this plan, it will also take a community-wide commitment to achieve the goals that we’ve collectively set forth. I look forward to your partnership and continued thoughts as we work together to build an even brighter future for our students and our New Horizon community.
