In partnership with area school districts, Humble ISD is encouraging participation in Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day on Monday, June 10, rather than on the nationally-scheduled date of Thursday, April 25. By participating in June, the activity will not interfere with a regular instructional day. Additionally on April 25, Texas public school students are involved in state testing and campuses must be closed to visitors during testing. Humble ISD schools must accurately report attendance. Any student not present on April 25 will be marked absent in compliance with state requirements.
April is National Autism Awareness Month
