Our social media channels are great places to get tons of information. Here are five reasons why you should follow us!

1. Find out what’s happening around the district

One of our biggest goals is to keep you informed about what is going on in our 282 schools. We highlight student and staff success and let you know about upcoming HISD events.

2. See photos of your children and special events

We go out to schools regularly to capture photos of life in the classroom and special events. We post many of these images on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest for you to see and share.

3. Get inclement weather updates

Sometimes the weather doesn’t cooperate with after-school events or the school day in general, and things get cancelled. You’ll find out first by following us on Facebook and/or Twitter.

4. Connect with HISD

You can send us HISD questions on Facebook and Twitter, and we will connect you with the person who will get you the answers you need.

5. Get tips to help make life a little easier

We know you’re busy, so we have been looking for ideas to help you optimize the time you spend with your children. Visit our Pinterest page, where we’ve posted dozens of quick, kid-friendly recipes; many fun, low-cost activities that your kids will love; and some tips for helping you and your children survive homework and those not-so-great days.
