Horizons Elementary School

We invite all community residents to join us at one of our upcoming in-person AASD Referendum Information Sessions or AASD Virtual Referendum Information Sessions.

Each session will include a presentation outlining the details of the referendum, followed by an opportunity for attendees to ask questions. All sessions are open to the public, and no registration is required.

Community members are encouraged to attend a session that best fits their schedule and take part in the conversation.

Kindergarten celebrated the end of their Wit & Wisdom Module (Once Upon a Farm) by going to the PAC to watch The Three Billy Goats Gruff and Other Stories, and kicked off the next Module (America Then and Now) with an amazing trip to the History Museum at the Castle. There they got to see real artifacts from home and school in the past, and participated in some hands-on activities. They even got to try cornbread and sarsaparilla! Thank you Horizons Family Network for helping make this fun day possible!

Back in November, our 3rd, 4th, 5th Graders and the Flames Choir had their concert. What an amazing show! Thanks to Mrs. Swaagman for all of her hard work in making this happen!

Ms. Hoffman’s 5th Grade had a photography lesson by The Photo Opp, a non-profit organization in Appleton. They learned about “the rule of thirds” as a way to plan their photo, which goes great with their fraction lessons!
