Hey boys of all grade levels, Student Government is hosting a Mr. HHS Contest.  If you think you’ve got what it takes to compete for the crown, then come to the Main Office and sign-up today.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and helps students to be more alert, pay better attention in class and be sick less often.  Starting your day with a healthful meal goes a long way and Nutrition Services is here to help in that process.  Join us for breakfast here at Horizon each day and enjoy all the benefits it brings now and in the future.  Adams 12 breakfast includes a fruit or 100% juice every day and is 100% whole-grain rich.

Looking for a summer job?  The City of Thornton is looking to hire high school age students for seasonal jobs for the summer.  These jobs range from lifeguards, boat attendants, summer camp help, etc.  If you are interested go to the city website at cityofthornton.net/jobs to apply.  You can get more information by seeing Officer “Q” or pick up a flyer in the Main Office.
Counseling

ATTENTION JUNIORS 
The RMASS “Zapping the SAT” prep seminar will be coming to Horizon on Wednesday, March 15th & Thursday, March 16st.  For an opportunity to participate in this awesome two-day after school seminar, you must see Mrs. Bell or Mrs. Neumann in the counseling office to sign up for a spot.  The cost of this two-day seminar is usually $89 – but Dr. Shadwell will be paying $50 of the $89 for the first 100 students who sign up – so it will cost you only $39.  Don’t pass up this great opportunity to get “prepped” for the SAT Test coming in April.  For any questions on this SAT Prep opportunity – see Mrs. Neumann in the counseling office.
