Owens Intermediate

Owens Intermediate sits in the Alief area of southwest Houston, a dense, culturally diverse pocket of the city where families from all over the world have planted roots — and that richness shows up in the school community. Academics here are a work in progress, with scores currently in the lower range statewide, so families who prioritize strong test performance may want to look at additional tutoring or enrichment options outside of school. That said, for families already embedded in the Alief community who value a multicultural environment and want a neighborhood school that reflects the world their kids are growing up in, Owens can be a meaningful part of that experience.
