Henderson Middle School is proud to be a part of "The Tradition Of Excellence" at HISD.

These are exciting times to be an H.M.S. Cub.  I have always said that this is the best middle school, with the best students, and the best teachers.  Our students proved that this last year.  HMS has received a "Recognized" rating from the Texas Education Agency.  This is the first time in its history that H.M.S. has received this rating.  We owe this honor to the hard work and dedication of our students and teachers.  They all deserve a big pat on the back for a job well done. 

I want to challenge our students and staff to keep up the hard work and always strive for perfection in what ever they are working towards.  I know that this will be the first of many "Recognized" ratings to come for H.M.S.

Keep in mind the H.M.S. mission statement: "To educate and prepare students to become productive citizens and lifelong learners who value excellence and integrity."
