About Us

Colegio Bilingüe New Horizons

Colegio Bilingüe New Horizons offers a bilingual education, with a dual program from Early Childhood until High School; facilitating the transfer of skills between reading and writing in Spanish and English.

Our multicultural nature allows our boys and girls to communicate and interact within the framework of respect and tolerance of both their native language and their own and foreign culture, preparing them to successfully insert themselves in the future in intercultural academic and professional environments.

We have highly qualified staff in their respective areas that enhance the academic, sports, and socio-emotional development of our students.

Colegio Bilingüe New Horizons is a multicultural school, with more than 35 nationalities represented among its students and teachers, so the richness of daily interactions allows our students to be citizens of the world.


Shared Understanding Of High-Quality Learning

For New Horizons, High-Quality Learning is a process and partnership among learners who are empowered and given opportunities to construct their own conceptual understanding by questioning, exploring, risk-taking, and developing projects that enable them to apply the 21st Century Competencies to make sense of their everyday experiences within their school community and the world beyond. New Horizons strongly believes that learning is built as a balance of our learners’ voices and teacher guidance that fosters a positive environment for social and emotional well-being and academic growth.

“Studying at New Horizons has had a direct impact on my ability to achieve the goals I have set for myself. Thanks to the comprehensive education received with a focus on science and technology and extracurricular development opportunities I started my college career a few steps ahead of my peers and was able to get my internship on YouTube the summer after my freshman year.

As a New Horizons graduate, I have taken the necessary steps to continue my education and build a professional career. At the Rochester Institute of Technology, I have become an outstanding student in the Software Engineering career, thus becoming part of the university honor roll. I have also been able to explore the world of academic research achieving a publication in the field of “Human-Computer Interaction” focused on the accessible use of technology. Thanks to my academic achievements I had the opportunity to be one of the few selected to complete internships on Google, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. I am currently working as an intern in the Google Images team.”
