Founded in 1999 with the goal to provide an exemplary education to students and parents through a school of choice, Southwest Schools represents a diversity of interests, cultures, talents and proficiencies coexisting under a single schoolhouse roof. Its mission is simple: to provide children and parents the choice of an exemplary education in a unique, community atmosphere that maintains impeccable standards, respects individuality and cultural diversity; and encourages students from pre-kindergarten through grade 12 to reach their true potential.Southwest Schools was the first state charter high school in the Houston area. Since it receives funding through state and federal programs, Southwest Schools has the same level of accountability as other schools in neighboring local districts. However, by being a small public school, it is able to provide innovative programs and make improvements for students at a much faster rate than other larger or more bureaucratic school districts.
