Horizon Alternative School, located in Evanston, Wyoming, operates as part of the Uinta County School District #1. The school is specifically designed to provide an alternative educational path for students who may struggle in a traditional classroom setting.

The curriculum at Horizon is tailored to meet the diverse needs of its student body, often emphasizing credit recovery and flexible pacing. In addition to core academic subjects, the school prioritizes a supportive culture that focuses on student growth, character development, and future readiness. By maintaining a smaller student-to-teacher ratio, Horizon provides the individualized attention necessary to foster success for students who require a non-traditional approach to learning.
