The HISD Innovation & Postsecondary Programming Department, which is under the division of Strategy & Innovation, is committed to providing the highest-quality access and opportunity to all HISD students. Innovation & Postsecondary Programming works closely with campuses and district departments to: increase the number of students graduating college-ready, provide access to college credit coursework in high school, and adopt new student-focused district projects. Starting in elementary school, students and parents are encouraged to take charge of their learning, connect with others about postsecondary education, and dive into preparing for college early.
