To fulfill this mission, instruction must be of the highest quality, equity must be maintained for all students, and educators shall be accountable for results
The Community :
East Bernard, an early Texas settlement, is primarily a residential area located in the fertile farm area approximately 45 miles southwest of Houston. This location provides the best of two worlds; the pleasure of small community living and close proximity to the cities of Houston, Rosenberg, and Wharton. In East Bernard, most simple pleasures are a reality. The good life means a quality education, low crime rate, and great community spirit
