While the world has changed vastly in the last 83 years, our district has remained steadfast and committed to a common core belief: we are a district of opportunity! Not only are our students taught by some of the highest quality academic teachers in Texas, they are also provided the opportunity to grow in areas such as fine arts, language arts, leadership, and athletics. With every new and engaging experience, our students are better positioned to live and work in a complex world. When students walk into the classrooms of GPISD this year, they are not just walking into a room with desks and books, they are walking into their future. From elementary UIL academic competitions to high school Advanced Band students prepare for the upcoming marching season during summer Placement and dual credit courses, the students of this district are given practice. every advantage to be challenged on their level. Our desire is for every young adult leaving our district at graduation to have the chance to choose the path they wish in life.

  • The Bayou Bowl, with a Successful 16 Year History, Is an All-Star Football Game Featuring 36 of the Best from the Greater Housto
    The Bayou Bowl, with a successful 16 year history, is an All-Star Football Game featuring 36 of the best from the Greater Houston Area against 36 of the best from the State of Louisiana. After the 2013 contest, won by Texas, the Louisiana High School Athletic Association and the Greater Houston Football Coaches Association mutually agreed to end the series. As a result of this decision, the GHFCA Board of Directors, wanting to continue with an All-Star Football Game for the players in the Greater Houston Area, adopted the following format. We divided the city into an East-West alignment using I-45 as the dividing line. The U.I.L. High School districts were used to determine the direction of the member schools. The 2014 game was played in Sugarland, a West side venue, the 1st game played using the new format. It featured 72 players from the Greater Houston Area, 36 per squad, from 72 different member schools. The game was broadcast live on KTRK-TV, ABC, Channel 13, with Bob Slovak, sports director of KTRK-TV, handling the play by play. The 2015 game returned to the East side of Houston and Stallworth Stadium, Baytown. The 2016 game was played at Rhodes Stadium with the City of Katy serving as the 2016 Bayou Bowl Host. The 2017 game was played at Turner Stadium, Humble ISD, Humble, TX. The Kingwood Mustang marching band performed as well as the National Champion Dance Team, the Fillies. The 2018 game once again returned to Baytown’s Stallworth Stadium, the original site for the 1st Bayou Bowl Game played in 2003.
