History

HSA Belmont  is part of Concept Schools; a Chicago based non-profit educational management and consulting organization. Concept Schools, Inc. first initiated Horizon Science Academies, a science and math emphasized school model in Cleveland and Columbus Ohio, in 1999. These schools are known for a successful college-prep school culture and a well-deserved reputation with high student retention rate and ever-increasing waiting lists. Both schools had strong mathematics, science and technology curriculum. And both recruited students in urban neighborhoods that historically had few education options.
