Pinecrest Academy Horizon

Pinecrest Academy Horizon is a public charter school in Henderson, at 1360 S Boulder Hwy, zip code 89015, serving kindergarten through middle school along with gifted and talented and special education programs. The listed age range is 5 to 14, and because it is a charter school, tuition is recorded as free, meaning families do not pay per-program fees the way they would at a private academy or club.

Academics run alongside a long list of extracurricular options, including basketball, soccer, volleyball, and cheerleading for sports, plus art club, robotics club, coding club, chess club, band, choir, tutoring, and student government. That breadth means a child interested in either athletics or academic enrichment clubs has options within the same school rather than needing to enroll elsewhere for after-school activities.

The campus is described as having athletic facilities, after-school programs, special education services, gifted programs, STEM labs, art rooms, and music rooms, giving a sense of the physical resources on site beyond the standard classroom setup. School hours run Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the school follows the standard school year calendar rather than operating through the summer.

Pinecrest is listed as special needs friendly, with specific accommodations noted for special education support, learning disability support, and emotional or behavioral support, which is worth highlighting for families evaluating schools for a child who needs those services. Since this is a school with an enrollment and admissions process rather than a drop-in activity, families interested in the gifted and talented track or the special education program should reach out directly to understand current enrollment periods, any waitlist, and how the gifted program identifies and places students.
