GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This last year of high school was amazing, the people are great and caring. They are a few bad apples but it won't stop you from learning or doing what you like. We have cool school events that make the students look forward to coming to school. The teachers are also very caring they will help you become great each in their own way. We also offer many sports and other activities that can benefit you.

My experience at Horizon High School has been great I love the new principle,he's made changes but are good changes. One thing I don't like is that we only have 5 minutes for transition and sometimes we get late to class cause the next class can be on the other side of the school.but overall I love it

I've been a student at Horizon High School for about 3 years going into my 4 year as a senior now. I can't say i've problems in the last 3 years because i've been doing good myself. Grades are high, I get all the help I need, coaches are cool and hardworking. This school has given me a lot of great memories that I hope to keep alive when i'm older

This school is far below average on what they teach. Everything they tought my kids they had learned the prevoius year, if not earlier. Also, do no under any circumstances move into or out of this school before the end of the semester. They will not give yur children credit for their classes.
