School Overview
Highpoint School East is a specialized alternative education campus operated by the Harris County Department of Education (HCDE). Located in Houston, Texas, the school serves students from various local independent school districts who have been referred due to disciplinary issues or the need for a highly structured, small-group learning environment. The program is designed to provide students with a fresh start, focusing on academic recovery and behavioral intervention to help them successfully transition back to their home campuses or remain on a path toward graduation.

The school emphasizes a "Choices" curriculum, which combines rigorous academics with social-emotional support and character development. By maintaining smaller class sizes and providing individualized attention, Highpoint School East aims to address the specific challenges that led to student referral. The staff works closely with students to foster accountability and personal growth, ensuring that the time spent at the facility is productive and helps students regain the credits and skills necessary for academic success.
