Principal's Message

Thank you for visiting our website and welcome to Sutton Elementary home of the Bears. Sutton Elementary is a diverse learning and working environment that brings together students and staff who speak more than 40 different languages. Our diversity has always been our strength.

At Sutton elementary, we are committed to providing a high-quality education that focuses on growing the whole child so that they are equipped with the skills necessary to compete favorably in a changing global world.

The 2021-2022 School Year was a Great Year. All our students returned to in-person instruction, and we have made great strides in reducing gaps and learning loss that occurred due to the pandemic. I am happy to report that this year our school received an A Rating from the recently released school accountability data from the Texas Education Agency. My sincere thanks go to the staff, students, parents, and the entire Sutton community for supporting us throughout this school year. I look forward to a Great 2022-2023 School Year.

If you have any questions about our school, please feel free to contact us via e-mail at SuttonElementary@houstonisd.org or by phone 713-778-3400.

Go Sutton Bears!
