Serving students from under-resourced communities in the Greater Philadelphia area
Horizons is an award-winning, tuition-free academic and enrichment program serving students from under-resourced communities. Philadelphia area sites are Horizons at The Episcopal Academy, Horizons at Greene Street Friends School, Horizons at Cristo Rey Philadelphia High School, Horizons at Springside Chestnut Hill Academy and Horizons at Girard College.
The Problem
Gaps–of opportunity and achievement–between low-income students and their more fortunate peers are growing every day, right here in Philadelphia.
The Opportunity
Horizons students discover the joy of learning, the skills for success, and the inspiration to realize their dreams.
The Results
Increased school attendance. Improved self-esteem. Better grades. A love of learning. And endless possibilities.
Horizons Philadelphia provides its students with high-quality programs, outside of the traditional school year, to support academic achievement and healthy youth development.
The summer is flying by and all four of our Philadelphia programs are in full swing!
We are celebrating the launch of in-person learning at four Horizons sites in the Philadelphia area this summer.
