Area & Neighborhood Coverage

Horicon Elementary School District proudly serves the ruggedly beautiful northern reaches of Sonoma County, California. Our district encompasses the remote and picturesque community of Annapolis, extending through the stunning redwood forests and along portions of the dramatic Sonoma Coast. This unique geographic footprint means we cater to families nestled in secluded valleys, along winding coastal roads, and within the verdant landscape that defines this less-traveled part of the county, far from the more urban centers like Santa Rosa or Petaluma. We are deeply embedded in this distinct corner of California, where the Pacific Ocean meets ancient redwoods.

The district's operations are deeply intertwined with the rhythms of rural life on the Sonoma Coast, reflecting the values and collaborative spirit of the families who call this unique environment home.
