    "Horizons is so amazing! I've gone to this school for eight years. Its not just a school but its a community and excellent teachers who really care about how you do as a student and help you strive to be the best that you can be. There are so many fun activities that you can do, and you don't only learn a ton but you have fun while learning! I would have never gone to another school, horizons is the best! The teachers really care about how you do, and push you to go places you didn't think you could go. There is a strong sense of community and the school is in great hands with an amazing principal. It forms your childhood, and I don't know where I would be without horizons."

    "I have triplets who attended Horizons from kindergarten through 2nd grade and loved every moment of it. Their experience gave them a foundation that I'm confident will serve them well throughout their lives. It taught them to be responsible for their role in individual relationships as well as the bigger community around them. The program at Horizons includes community service, experiential learning, portfolio review, and parent volunteerism. The classes are kept small to serve every student's individual needs. You will find that the teachers are truly dedicated. The gifts I cherish most from Horizons are that my kiddos retain a love and appreciation of learning and an awareness that they are the directors of their own learning experience. We live two towns away from Boulder and the drive got to being too much for me, otherwise they would still be attending. The Horizons community still welcomes us back to visit."

    "This is the most awesome school! I the first review it said that classrooms are cramped, but they are not. They are a little bit small but there are only about 10-20 kids in a class. They offer a great spanish program w/ a native speaker too! There is a great Outdoor education where the students get to go to places like Moab and Mesa Verde"

    "Horizons is a charter school for k-8 in the Boulder Valley School District. We have visited Horizons twice during the past month for open enrollment tours and information. I was very impressed with the openness of the staff. Teachers were ready and willing to answer any questions. They were more than happy to spend as much time with parents of prospective students as needed. Looks like some great teaching and learning is going on at this school. I especially like the emphasis on Service Learning and Outdoor Education. I wish there were more schools like this in BVSD. The only negatives I could see were no reduced/free lunches, no transportation provided, and cramped classrooms (classrooms not big enough for all the materials). Classroom sizes are 17-19 students."
