EMPOWERING STUDENTS IN NEW YORK CITY TO DISCOVER THE JOYS OF LEARNING!
The Horizons Program
Each summer, Kindergarten through 8th grade students attend our tuition-free, six-week academic enrichment program, and return year after year. Summers at Horizons create experiences outside of school that ensure every student has the opportunities, skills, and confidence to fulfill their potential in both school and in life!
Going Beyond
Our approach goes beyond the typical summer camp experience by integrating both academic and social-emotional components that are specifically designed for holistic development and reducing summer learning loss. With Horizons, students begin every school year confident and prepared to learn alongside their peers.

“What's really important about Horizons is that it is an opportunity for kids to decide they love learning. My son was not interested in school at all before he started Horizons. Now, he can't wait to go every day and learn something new!”
