Our History

Student with teacher, learning how to use a drill

Horizons GFA is an innovative, self-funded program that provides access and opportunity to Bridgeport public school students impacted by educational inequities. Founded by community members who recognized a disparity in the educational opportunities available to Bridgeport students compared to their wealthier peers in neighboring communities, Horizons GFA opened its doors to 24 Bridgeport public school kindergarteners and 1st graders in the summer of 2000. 

Over the next 25 years, HGFA program offerings expanded based on emerging needs identified by educators, parents, and community members. We now serve 350 students in grades PreK through college in three integrated programs – the PreK-8 Program, the High School Program, and the College and Career Success Program – supporting students with their academic and social-emotional development throughout their educational journey.
