Accolades

Winner, Houston Chronicle’s Best of the Best

For two consecutive years, Texas Connections Academy has won the Houston Chronicle’s Best of the Best in two important categories: Public Schools and E-Learning. We appreciate this recognition not only because it reflects our commitment to high-quality education, but because the winners were chosen by Houstonians. We’re also proud that Erica Nickols, one of our Special Education teachers at our school, was recognized as a Best of the Best Teacher Finalist.
