Humble Independent School District, located just 17 miles northeast of downtown Houston, serves more than 40,000 students across 43 campuses—and continues to set the bar for academic excellence in Texas and beyond. With a track record of outperforming state and national averages, Humble ISD has once again earned a “Met Standard” rating from the Texas Education Agency, the highest possible distinction.

Humble Independent School District

A key factor in the district’s continued success is the powerful support of its community. Families, local businesses, and dedicated educators work together to enrich the educational experience of every student. The Humble Independent School District Education Foundation has raised over $6.74 million to fund innovative classroom projects, the most notable being the Humble ISD Insperity Observatory. This cutting-edge facility features retractable-roof telescopes and gives students unique, hands-on opportunities for space education and scientific exploration.

Parental involvement is another cornerstone of the district’s culture. Every campus benefits from active PTA, PTO, or PTSA organizations, as well as dedicated booster clubs that support athletic and fine arts programs. This collaborative spirit enhances school pride and student engagement across all grade levels.

With more than 5,000 employees committed to the district’s mission, Humble ISD strives to develop each child intellectually, artistically, emotionally, physically, and socially. The goal is clear: to prepare all students to become life-long learners, complex thinkers, responsible global citizens, and effective communicators.

Whether it’s through advanced STEM initiatives, community partnerships, or world-class fine arts programs, Humble ISD continues to shape future leaders while staying true to its core values of excellence, equity, and innovation.
