| HISD voters rejected the $4.4 billion HISD bond proposal on Election Day. For reactions from both voters and the district, see recent articles in the Houston Chronicle and the Houston Landing. Looking towards the future, there is an upcoming legislative session in Texas. Stay tuned here for more information on how you can advocate for public education at the state level. Locally, the HISD Board of Managers meeting is Thursday, November 14 at 5pm. Information on how to sign up to speak is available here (the signup deadline is noon the day before the meeting). Meetings are open to the public and also live-streamed in several places, including HISD’s YouTube channel. |

| The Great HHS Clean Up! This Saturday! |
The small but mighty Beautification Crew has been hard at work. We picked up litter, super volunteer Alex Valdez trimmed trees along the walkways on campus, and we cleaned up debris under the field bleachers. We are currently working to repair damaged bleachers and fix a leaking sprinkler under the bulldog. Would you like to volunteer at your own time on the weekends? just an hour of work makes a huge difference. Join our crew! Email beautification@heightspto.org. Join us for a day of service on 16 November, 9:00 - 11:30. Don't forget your water bottles and garden gloves!
This is an easy way to earn service hours, get some time in the sunshine, and help your school. |
