Since we opened our doors in 1998, YES Prep has continuously redefined possible for students, families and the public education system at large. Today, with 13 schools in operation, serving 9,000 students throughout Houston, YES Prep is living proof that different outcomes are possible when students from low-income communities are given access to high-quality educational opportunities. Passion, Resilience, Integrity, Discipline, and Empathy, the Northside PRIDE are laser-focused on college-readiness for every student. With an emphasis on public speaking as a unique hallmark of our program, we are dedicated to developing academic and social skills within our students that propel them into positions of leadership in Houston.
