Momentum High School

Momentum High School, a new Spring ISD school of choice, will offer a path to graduation for students seeking an alternative to the traditional middle school or high school experience.

With smaller classes, personalized learning plans, accelerated credit recovery and career training opportunities, Momentum will provide paths to graduation for students who may have become disconnected or disengaged in their traditional school environment, or those who are looking to accelerate their learning.

Through a combination of flexible schedules and blended instruction, accepted students will be able to leverage the school’s unique structure and resources to gain greater momentum in their own path toward earning their diploma, as well as valuable industry certifications and career training opportunities.
