Principal's Message
Dear Horizon Parents,
We are off to a great start to the new year! I appreciate your support in helping to ensure that all students complete their NWEA test in December. Teachers have started the data chat process with students which include reviewing data and setting goals for continued growth between now and the end of the year.
Please be sure to utilize the parent portal to check your students’ grades. Lastly, we were excited to start our Spring Tutoring program that includes Free:
- Tutoring
- Academic interventions
- Grade recovery
- Boot camps
- STEAM Academy
Transportation will be provided starting the week of February 8th in the mornings and for Saturdays. Please be sure to reference the flyer below for more information.
Sincerely,
Michael Ballone
