Science Department

Welcome to the Horizon High School Science Department

We strive for excellence by providing opportunities for our students to inquire and explore scientific principles in a collaborative setting. Our course offerings are driven by standards and provide a comprehensive science education that prepares students for all post-secondary options.  

‘Science—and therefore science education—is central to the lives of all Americans. A high-quality science education means that students will develop an in-depth understanding of content and develop key skills—communication, collaboration, inquiry, problem solving, and flexibility—that will serve them throughout their educational and professional lives.’
