There will be no school Monday, January 18 in honor of the Martin Luther King Day holiday. We will resume classes on Tuesday, January 19. Martin Luther King Jr. Day is a United States holiday marking the birthdate of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., observed on the third Monday of January each year, around the time of King's birthday, January 15. It is one of four United States federal holidays to commemorate an individual person. King was the chief spokesman for nonviolent activism in the civil rights movement, which successfully protested racial discrimination in federal and state law. He was assassinated in 1968. (wikipedia.com). Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character - that is the goal of true education.”

Dear H.S.A Family,

Harmony Science Academy-Houston's ranking has been changed to Silver category from Bronze category in USNews.com.

What does it mean:

USNews The America's Best High Schools project is an annual report that identifies the country's top-performing high schools. The goal is to provide a clear, unbiased picture of how well public schools serve all of their students - from the highest achieving to the lowest achieving - in preparing them to demonstrate proficiency in basic skills as well as readiness for college-level work. The first-ever list of America's Best High Schools is the 2008 edition, which was posted online November 30, 2007. The 2009 edition was posted online on December 5, 2008 and the 2010 edition was posted on December 10, 2009.

Since U.S. News & World Report editors believe high schools are among America's most important institutions, adding America's Best High Schools to its "America's Best" series was a natural progression. Education drives our country's future. Recognizing schools that are performing well and providing them as models to other schools will inspire educators and communities to do better. Also, by sharing this information, parents across the country will be armed with information to help them make better-informed decisions about their child's education. read more . . .
