HORIZONS STUDENTS' BODY & ALUMNI
Horizons scholars by city
Horizons Academy supports a diverse cohort of 505 scholars from across Palestine, with 29% from Gaza, 27% from Jerusalem, 0.5% from the 1948 areas, and 43.5% from the West Bank. The student body is composed of 54.7% females and 45.3% males, reflecting a commitment to gender equity.
As of last year, the Academy had 225 alumni. This year, 46 more students will join their ranks, bringing the total alumni count to 271. To accommodate the growing alumni body, Horizons Academy has launched a dedicated Alumni Program. This initiative aims to provide alumni with opportunities for higher education, internships, and full-time employment, alongside the chance to participate in an annual alumni conference. In return, alumni are encouraged to support current scholars by mentoring, interning at the Horizons Summer School, and creating connections that bring more opportunities to both current students and fellow alumni. The alumni conference is set to become a key event, fostering community and collaboration, much like the summer school, strengthening ties across the Horizons network.
