Wide Horizon's mission is to assist each student in finding their unique strengths, and to build upon those strengths, in turn building self esteem, thus allowing each student to achieve their highest potential, school, and community settings.
At Wide Horizons we have a full academic schedule, and give the students a well rounded look at the world, making sure that each student has a strong foundation in reading, writing, and arithmetic.
The key to our psycho-educational program, as well as all programs here at Wide Horizons, is building a positive self-image through positive reinforcement.
Praise and reward is our lifeline to helping the child establish his self worth.
