Horizons School: Independent Study Reviews
Rating 4.42 out of 5 19 reviews
Horizons Center for Independent Study gives the students the opportunity to learn independence. It teaches the students how to manage their time and work without having to be told.
Horizons Independent Study School provides outstanding opportunities for students who (1) can't go to regular school because of other commitments (e.g., sports); (2) want to finish school faster; or (3) don't like going to regular school. Each student at Horizons gets an individual advisor who helps you through the year. Advisors are wonderful: very knowledgeable and caring! You get free help for math! Plus you can complete courses at the local community college earning college and high school credits at the same time. Love it.
I joined Independent Study my freshman year and I love all my teachers, they have helped me prosper in my high school career. You have one on one appointments with your teacher and this allows for an excellent learning experience. They allow you to take control of your learning and I have met some of my best friends here.
