School Overview

Yates High School sits in Houston's historic Third Ward neighborhood, one of the city's most culturally significant communities with deep roots in African American history and civic life. Families who are drawn to schools with a strong sense of place and identity will find that Yates carries real neighborhood pride, and the surrounding Third Ward offers a tight-knit community feel within a major city. There's room to grow academically here, and families looking to be part of a school and neighborhood with a distinct story — rather than just a suburb with good test scores — may find it worth a closer look.
