Friday is #NationalLawEnforcementAppreciationDay, and we'd like to thank our dedicated SRO's—Officers Werk, Horn and Jutting—for their partnership and commitment to keeping our schools safe! #FoundationsForTheFuture
On the first Friday of each month, staff at Horizon West wear gear to promote awareness of opportunities after high school. 🎓
Staff around the building take time to share with students about a school they (or someone they know) attended or a job they once had. This has been a fun way for students to get to know more about the adults in the building while also promoting great discussions! #foundationsforthefuture 🥔👍🏼
Our Horizon West students have been busy spreading warmth this winter! Through our annual partnership with The Joy Project, our Spuds teamed up to hand-craft over 90 fleece tie blankets for our own students and community members experiencing homelessness.
This project was a major highlight of our school-wide Month of Service. Our students are learning that a little time and effort can go a long way—by creating these blankets, they are delivering more than just handmade warmth; they are sending "extra joy" to our community during some of the coldest months of the year! We are so incredibly proud of the compassion and hard work our students and staff showed to make this massive impact.
Way to go, Spuds! 🧡🖤

The students and staff at Horizon Middle School East participated in a door decorating competition the week before break. Creativity flooded through the halls as the pods created fun, collaborative, and festive pod artwork. Congratulations to pod 7C for winning the competition! #FoundationsForTheFuture

Last week in Mr. Hann’s class, teams had 18 minutes, 20 spaghetti noodles, string, tape, and one marshmallow to build the tallest free-standing tower. Creativity, teamwork, and lots of laughs—students loved it! 🍝

🌿 Honoring tradition through hands-on learning.
Our students harvested red willow today — saving the bark for medicine and the inner green layer for traditional tobacco.
So grateful for our new Indian Ed Liaison, Kathy Benjamin, for sharing knowledge and supporting our students. 🧡✨
