With safety at the forefront of our decisions, we are finalizing the reopening plan for the 2020-2021 school year.

We continue to review the guidance provided by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) for reopening schools and listening to the voices of our stakeholders, including students, parents, educators, staff, and health officials.

As we continue to navigate the ongoing pandemic, we remain committed to two primary goals — providing a high-quality education for all students and ensuring the safety of both our students and staff.

We will continue to provide rigorous, TEKS-based, online instruction through HISD @ H.O.M.E. as well as face-to-face instruction based on parent selection for what is best for their children. We respect our parent’s ability to choose an option of remote learning or face-to-face and will be sending out a brief survey asking parents to select a method of instruction to assist the planning at the campus level.

Our ultimate goal is to provide families with options so they can choose what works best — and what they feel is safest — for their children.

Our reopening plan for the upcoming school year will be announced on July 15.
