LETTER FROM THE SUPERINTENDENT.

Dear Pro-Vision Community: 

​

Houston, TX – At their regular Board meeting held April 27, 2022, The Board of Directors of Pro-Vision Educational Services, Inc, dba The Pro-Vision Academy approved an innovative school calendar for the 2022-2023 school year.  The ultimate purpose of the new calendar is to positively impact student learning and achievement.

The calendar features a four (4) day Monday-Thursday week for students. The school day will be extended so that all required instructional time is not only met; it is exceeded.  

On alternate Fridays, all staff will attend professional development, as well as attend, conduct, and collaborate in professional learning communities. Staff will have alternate Fridays off duty.

Superintendent of Schools

The administration is excited for the opportunity to provide all staff with the time to hone their skills that will result in increased student learning and student achievement.  The new calendar provides for nineteen (19) Fridays for staff to receive coaching and instructional support and guidance.

The Pro-Vision Academy, a public charter school, is located in the heart of Sunnyside at 4590 Wilmington St.  It has existed since 1995 as a school that focuses on learning and character development.  Roynell Young, founder of the school, had a vision to create a community of learners that experience success in school and in life after graduation.  The current administration and staff continue to embrace this vision. The school serves up to 450 students in grades 3 through 12.  

After conducting focus groups and stakeholder surveys, the administrative team determined that taking this course of action would positively impact the entire Pro-Vision Academy community.

Janelle James

Superintendent
