March 20 HoS COVID-19 Update
Look here for additional information on campus closure and rescheduled school events. This page will be updated weekly.
Academics.
Our academic leaders are well prepared for distance learning and will monitor transition into this next phase as it develops. Look for an email later today from Dr. Price, the Principal, that provides detailed information on the structure and format for distance learning. As coursework proceeds, expect the first three days of this new process to require time for orientation and adjustment by both students and teachers. Feedback to your student’s teachers can be helpful as is patience in the process. Technology concerns should be addressed to techdepartment@houstonchristian.org.

Gala
Volunteers have worked tirelessly this year to support the school with “A Night in the Winner’s Circle.” Unfortunately, this must be rescheduled and the format will be changed to a virtual event online in support of our Mustangs. Look for further information and dates to be announced here. Now, everyone, anywhere can be part of the gala in what will prove to be a novel, fun way to support the school and continue to ensure our students and teachers get the resources they want and deserve!
