  • About Us

    Our Mission

    Horizons at Greens Farms Academy (GFA) helps underserved students from Bridgeport develop strong academic, social and emotional skills, habits of mind and the resilience to succeed in school and pursue a meaningful, choice-filled life.

    Our Approach

    In partnership with GFA, PreK-8 students attend a six-week summer program of small classes led by professional, nurturing teachers. Students engage with an individualized curriculum emphasizing reading, writing and math. Enrichment activities, including swimming and music, expose students to new opportunities. During the school year, Saturday Academy provides academic and social continuity. Horizons assists its high school and college students through one-on-one tutoring, mentoring, and college counseling.
