Governed by a locally elected Board of Trustees under Title 2 of the Texas Education Code, the district exercises independent statutory taxing authority, administers instructional budgets, and maintains academic standards evaluated through the TEA State Accountability Rating System.
Statutory Accountability & Operational Metrics

Attendance Boundaries, Feeder Patterns & Academic Programs
Student assignment across Harmony Public Schools Texas is determined by geographic campus attendance boundaries adopted by the local Board of Trustees.
