I placed the POV tag on the main page. I don't even know where to start... first of all, the Horizons section is written in the first person. The entire article repeatedly praises the school instead of just giving information. Guldenat (talk) 05:30, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]


I attended this school and am dismayed at how poorly this article was written and at the hostility about the Horizons program. It is a great program.

Rewriting needed

Just in initial review, the article seems to be descending further into an advertisement style rather than an encyclopedic style.

Some suggestions that might be helpful in starting the edits:

  1. The language needs to be toned down. There are too many words that suggest high quality without any citations.
  2. The lead highlights certain features of the school with an advertising quality. If this lead is representative, then it requires citations.
  3. The academics section reads like an advertisement.
  4. There are too many lists in this article.
  5. I am not really sure if the terminology section is needed at all in the article.
  6. The article lacks citations in general.

As someone who has not attended this school nor has any familiarity with it, I would not be able to alter this article efficiently or accurately. If there are editors who can make significant contributions, it would be greatly appreciated.
