The teachers are always willing to give you extra help to keep you up with the rest of the class if you fall behind. They're always there for what ever you need. If you just need somebody to talk to, you can go to any one and they're always willing to help. Many people who don't know anything about Horizons, or any other alternative school for that matter, come to conclusion that their only purpose is to give kids who have been kicked out of other schools an easy way out. It's not anything like that.
Horizons does have students like that, but the majority of students came here for other reasons.
Of course there are kids here who only enroll because they heard that they can skip easily or that they can smoke at school, but most don't fall into that category. It bothers me that there are those students because they can end up ruining the good things for all the students that really do try hard here. But then there are the ones who do their best, pass their classes, and really work to make Horizons a better place. Those are the people who really deserve credit and will get far after high school. To find out more about Horizons, you can go to their web page where it gives you info about the school, about the students, classes, etc.
