Cycle 5: Enhancing Creative Capacity in Students
Due to recent budget announcements, AISI has been eliminated from Alberta Education and will no longer be available. We are still planning on implementing our Creative focus for NHS, however no AISI funds will be used for this initiative.
The AISI website will remain operational to provide needed resources.

ABOUT US
The vision of New Horizons School is to enable gifted students to strive for excellence in an environment that is positive with social and emotional support for each student.
The mission of New Horizons School is to meet the special academic needs of gifted students in a congregated setting that also provides social and emotional support. These students need opportunities to be challenged, to think alternatively, and to pursue learning according to their own learning styles. The overarching principle of the program is to facilitate student growth and development in three main areas: academically, emotionally, and socially.
Timetabling will allow for flexibility in grouping for instruction and activities. At times students will be streamed to work with those with similar achievement levels. The possibility also exists to group students with different levels of skill mastery to allow students to develop leadership, and to ensure that students can work with a range of individuals at various levels of ability.
