Parent-Teacher Organization


The Horizon Academy's Parent Teacher Organization's goal is to continue to provide the support needed to maintain the excellent programs and educational opportunities our children enjoy at this school. We need you to accomplish this goal!

Last school year, we had a very successful year raising over $20,000, of which a large portion helped offset the cost of each grade level’s field trip, a visit to see a renowned author, and startup funds for Horizon’s new Positive Behavior Support (PBS) program. This year, we hope to implement more programs that benefit our children by providing educational enrichment.

By joining PTO, you help support many of the enrichment programs Horizon Academy's PTO provides throughout the year. When everyone helps a little, we can accomplish a lot. Plus, children with involved parents are more likely to pass their classes, graduate, and further their education after high school. Also, when lots of parents get involved, it helps teachers and the school as a whole.
