Message from Principal

The Principal

Greetings,

      It is a great honor to be the principal of Barbara Jordan High School for Careers, and I am excited about the 2007-2008 school year.  When the Texas Education Agency released accountability ratings on August 1, 2007, Barbara Jordan was rated as an academically acceptable campus.  Additionally, Jordan met the federal standard of adequate yearly progress (AYP) for the 2006-2007 school year.


      Jordan is committed to its mission of providing a nurturing environment while preparing students to function in the advanced technological society in which they live.  The campus offers students the best of both worlds in that students are able to earn their high school diploma while acquiring the knowledge and skills of their chosen career pathway.  This serves to prepare them for the world of work, as well as college.


      The campus is located at 5800 Eastex Freeway, and we invite you to come by and tour the facility from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.

 

Sincerely,

Rever Givens, Principal
