Holland Middle

Holland Middle sits in the East Houston corridor, a working-class area with deep roots and a tight-knit community feel that's a world away from the more polished parts of the city. The school shows more strength in math than in English or science, which may matter to families thinking ahead to high school course tracks. Families in this zip code are largely looking for stability and consistency, and Holland serves a neighborhood where local pride and community connection tend to matter more than rankings.
