The organization brings best practices, financial resources, and staff time and expertise to local school systems to support strategies that will improve existing schools and create new high-performing ones. Since its launch in 2017, Good Reason Houston has been on a mission to increase the number of students achieving in great public schools, both traditional and charter. Today we are asking Houston parents, educators, leaders and community members to come together and join us to fulfill this vision. This is why, together, Houston Endowment and Kinder Foundation helped launch Good Reason Houston to champion a bold, optimistic vision for our region - that every child, in every neighborhood, excels in a world-class public school and thrives in the Houston of tomorrow. Houston, this cannot be the legacy we leave. We are facing an educational crisis, one that disproportionately affects our black, Latino, and low-income students. Assuming no significant changes, more than 300,000 students across Houston’s urban core will be learning in schools rated C, D or F. In August our schools will receive letter grades from the Texas Education Agency.
