Welcome to Early College

It is our privilege to offer students a rigorous and supportive academic program of study that blends high school and college work with the goal that students will graduate with a high school diploma and an associate degree or 60 college credit hours toward a baccalaureate degree. It is a chance for students who may not otherwise consider attending college to earn 12 to 60 college hours. This opportunity will be offered free of charge through a partnership between Spring ISD and Lone Star College - North Harris, which will waive tuition and fees. 
What are the Benefits?
  • Opportunity to earn high school diploma and college degree simultaneously.
  • Students and families are provided ongoing support to ensure success.
  • Students and families save money on tuition costs.

    Trash Bash!
    03/23/2013
     
    On Saturday March 23, 2013 the Early College Academy Science Club participated in Texas’ annual Trash Bash at Collins Park in Spring. Once a year thousands of volunteers gather along the Texas waterways to do their part in cleaning up the environment and participate in the largest statewide event to educate the public about the importance of our water resources. The mission of this organization is to promote environmental stewardship of our watershed through public education by utilizing hands-on educational tools and by developing partnerships between environmental, governmental, and private organizations. Our students received four hours of community service by picking up and bagging trash along Cypress Creek.
