Family Engagement

Welcome to the Horizon Middle School Family-Engagement webpage!

In D49 we strive to enhance Family Engagement  as an essential component in fostering a supportive and inclusive learning environment. When families are actively involved in their children's education, it enhances student motivation, achievement, and overall well-being. Engaged families contribute valuable insights and resources, creating a stronger community that supports both academic and social development.

Moreover, partnerships between schools and families help bridge gaps in communication, ensuring that parents are informed and empowered to participate in our decision-making processes. Ultimately, this collaborative approach nurtures a positive school culture creating a sense of belonging for our entire community. Please refer to this site for updated event information and resources that you might find helpful for you and your students. 

Our Family Engagement Liaison is here to support you in partnering with us to ensure your child is successful at Horizon Middle School.  We encourage you to reach out to her or any member of our team if you have any questions or need support with school, district, community, and/or learning resources.
