School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>5 11/2/2020I really like how the school is very diverse and creative for many things. Sure, tests fall below average here, but really, the most important thing in Horace Mann is to be safe, respectful, and responsible! If they continue focusing on those three things, they will help kids not become rude and disliked when they grow up. And Horace Mann has a lot of creativity and things to keep everyone entertained. From things like playing Kahoot to making food trucks of different countries, they'll let kids explore everything about the world first before letting them decide on one thing they love. With specials like music, gym, art, innovation/tech, and SEL, they'll never get bored (Not to be rude, but please improve SEL. That one actually gets boring pretty fast.)! The point is, though they don't really match what the state wants, they give students a time to explore and be nice to all. And exploring and kindness is what we truly want. We don't want to get a job with numbers and reading. We want a job with exercise and art and diversity and friends! If you want a kid who's creative, fun, and friendly, this is the school for you!5 9/16/2010Spacious and well-kept building. Supported music, art, phy ed, library and guidance programs.
