The Pro-Vision Middle School is an innovative all-male charter school that targets young men in grades 5 through 8 who are experiencing academic difficulty, behavioral challenges, and other issues that have not allowed them to have success in a traditional school setting. The Pro-Vision Middle School’s educational paradigm emphasizes the primacy of structure and classroom management in the educational process, believing that “at-risk” students must first have a safe and structured environment before any learning can occur. The dedicated staff and faculty of Pro-Vision create this environment by combining a firm and consistent system of discipline with deep and meaningful relationships. This innovative educational strategy has produced success stories out of the thousands of young men who have come through its doors.Click Here For More
Since opening it's doors in 1995, The Pro-Vision Middle School has been a beacon of light, a safe haven for the lost and misguided young men of Houston, Texas. Pro-Vision has been at the fore-front of delivering ground-breaking re-socialization, educational, and entrepreneurial programs to almost 3,000 of Texas’s youth and their families. The Pro-Vision Middle School largely targets at-risk males who face severe challenges that prevent them from achieving success in the traditional school setting.

Programming at the Pro-Vision Middle School is designed to provide male students with the social and emotional support needed to break patterns of failure and despair, and redirect them into a pattern of long-term success. The school provides young men with an environment that is designed to be smaller and more intimate, so that teachers can more properly address individual needs. Through academics, cultural enrichment, professional counseling, life skills training, mentoring, parent involvement, community service, and sports and recreation, students are transformed into intelligent and well rounded young men.
Pro-Vision serves young men who are considered at high risk for failure, not only academically but also in life. The young men come to us facing a variety of issues and obstacles, which put them at a tremendous disadvantage in the pursuit of a normal, healthy adult life. To evaluate our effectiveness in combating these issues and assisting youth in turning their lives in a more positive direction, Pro-Vision takes a long-term, multi-year approach to measuring success. The program outcomes are designed to reflect a more comprehensive approach to developing the entire child.
