Program accomplishments

  • THROUGH THE TRANSFORMATION OF SAM HOUSTON, MIDLAND ISD HAS CREATED A DYNAMIC COLLEGIATE PATHWAY FOR STUDENTS IN OUR COMMUNITY STARTING AS YOUNG AS PREKINDERGARTEN. THE COLLEGE PREPARATORY MODEL INSTILLS THE EXPECTATION FROM THE FIRST DAY ON CAMPUS THAT EVERY STUDENT WILL GO TO COLLEGE. COLLEGE PREP CLASSROOM INSTRUCTION IS ENHANCED BY EXPOSURE TO UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES AND CONFIDENCE-BUILDING EXPERIENCES THAT PREPARE PARENT AND STUDENT EXPECTATIONS OF COLLEGE. AT HOUSTON, WE UTILIZE A PERSONALIZED LEARNING MODEL. CAMPUSES IN OUR NETWORK (THIRD FUTURE SCHOOLS) AVERAGE TWO YEAR GROWTH IN ONE YEAR OF TEACHING.
