About Us

Horizons Albuquerque Mission: Horizons Albuquerque advances equitable learning opportunities for scholars. We partner with families, communities, and schools to provide a summer academic and enrichment program, as well as wrap-around supportive services for scholars and their families throughout the year. Our out-of-school time program serves 180 under-resourced scholars from nearly 60 public schools in 1st - 12th grade from Bernalillo, Sandoval, and Valencia counties. The need to address student achievement and opportunity gaps has never been more critical. The majority of our programmatic impact takes place during our six-week tuition-free summer program, with our primary focus on addressing the academic needs of our scholars. Traditionally, Horizons scholars gain six to eight weeks of academic gains over the summer session, full of enriched learning and opportunities they may otherwise not receive. Our scholars benefit from our unique public/private school partnership. Elementary scholars attend the summer program at Manzano Day School, middle school scholars attend Bosque School, and high school scholars attend Sandia Prep. We also offer year-round family engagement opportunities and support for our students and families.
