Horizon Elementary School

1995–present · 10060 Brummitt Road

Horizon opened in the fall of 1995 on a campus built for two schools at once: the district's own history calls it "a beautiful, state-of-the-art facility" and fixes its founding fact — Horizon shares a thirty-seven-acre campus on Brummitt Road with Discovery Middle School, which was completed the following summer; the elementary and the middle school rose as one Granger campus, the elementary first. Its teams are the Suns, in purple and yellow, under the motto "Going Above and Beyond." The campus pairing is also the school's educational line: Horizon children go on to Discovery, in the building next door, and then to Penn High School. The school's published page carries the district's Early Learning Academy Preschool Program among its facilities, beside the before-and-after-school Kids Club, an outdoor environmental learning center, and a TV broadcast studio. On U.S. News & World Report's rankings computed from the 2021-22 through 2023-24 school years, the school stands #36 among Indiana public elementary schools, on its own page. As Horizon stands in November 2026: kindergarten through grade 5 with a preschool program, 679 students (NCES, 2026-27 directories — its enrollment "relatively flat over five school years" on the same record), and Courtney Koszyk is principal, with Candace Cussen assistant to the principal, on the district's own directory.
