About Us
Welcome to Horizon Elementary - Home of the Red Tailed Hawks!
Our focus words include kindness, ownership, safety, perseverance, and flexibility. We will continue to re-introduce these words and their meanings throughout the school year to our students and will recognize students who show stellar behaviors in these areas.
In addition to the support our students receive from their teachers and families, Horizon students receive support from the Horizon School Community Organization (SCO). SCO fundraises to provide grants, hosts special events, and provides hardship funds throughout the year to help keep our school great!
