Horizon Elementary

The theme for National Library Week, "Ready, Set, Library!," promotes the idea that in our always changing world, libraries give us a green light to something truly special: a place to connect with others, learn new skills, and focus on what matters most. Happy Library Week!

Showing some love for their favorite teams! #FinalFour #MarchMadness

Miss Volk nominated this learner for the #GoodNewsCallOfTheDay. She is very helpful in the classroom and has been working hard in reading. @pringarrett

It's the end of the third quarter! We're proud of all the hard work our students and staff have put in so far this year. Let's finish strong! #GoTigers 🐾

Miss Volk’s class finished up their science unit with an experiment! After learning about the states of matter the learners filled a bottle with vinegar and attached a baking soda filled balloon to it. The reaction that occurred was quite exciting!

Mrs. Kraayenbrink shared that this learner was a role model student following PAWS expectations. He completed all his work and had an AmAzInG Day! We were able to share the #GoodNewsCallOfTheDay with mom. @pringarrett

Third Grade singers took us through the four seasons during their concert this evening. They sang, played instruments, danced in the dark with white gloves on, and signed It's A Wonderful World. The concert was held at EMS under the direction of Mrs. Harper. @pringarrett
