Our Vision
The vision of Henry H. Houston school staff, parents and community partners is to instill in our students the love of learning and to take responsibility for their learning. In doing so, our students will become productive members of our society and world. It is our goal that all students will perform at the proficient and advanced levels in school. This goal will be accomplished by our students being exposed to a consistent rigorous academic program in a safe and conducive environment.
