Horizon Science Academy Toledo Reviews

 
Horizon Science Academy(High), Cleveland. This school is one of few options outside of Cleveland Public Schools for parents who can not afford private schools. The provide a pretty controlled environment as far as behavior is controlled. Safety inside the school is good, as they nip problems in the bud effectively as far as behavior is concerned. Safety on the outside is another issue. The school housed it high school, middle school and elementary school all on the same grounds in a very small area. The parking lot is small and there are no marked crosswalks for the students. Kids are everywhere. It is a breeding ground for a child to be hit by cars. They dart out everywhere. The school sits far back of East 55th street and there are no sidewalk, so they walk in the street with busy traffic.

My son and I love Horizon. He has been with the Junior High and High school for the last 4 yrs and it's definately better than going to Toledo Public where he use to be just one in the multitude of kids that were pushed along the system. Teachers are friendly and care about the students futures. I understand with a smaller school it's harder to offer the choices of the larger school districts. I feel a better education is the trade off. The High school is looking for a new location, hopefully they will have more space for athletics, but they do have a basketball team and are hoping to have a football team next year.

They forced me to provide at least one star, however I feel no star would have been appropriate. I have a children in the Toledo locations, both Toledo and Springfield. The lack of electives at the high school level is simply unacceptable. Lack of athletics is another huge downside. Complete lack of organization school wide. Not to be racist or hateful, but it is very hard to understand and hold conversations with faculty. Overall, this system is years behind local public schools in every measurable way. My kids are going back to public schools first chance.

Horizon Science Academy is one of the better choices in the metro Cleveland area. In 2006 Horizon was rated an effective school. The school is clean, decently run, and safe. There aren't many athletic programs and the other extracurriculars are somewhat limited but teachers all are required to run at least one club and there always are afterschool activities as well as a number of field trips and other activities. The emphasis is definitely on academics first and extracurriculars second. Parents are relatively active in the school and are much more involved than in other Cleveland metro schools. Horizon compares favorably to suburban schools in the area and is far better than the local public schools.
